Our Commitment

Building a school can be a complicated endeavor.

walk alongside your team — not as a developer, lender, or contractor, but as a trusted guide committed to the success of your project.
ensure you have all the information you need to make informed facilities decisions
help you assemble the right professionals, build your project team, and steer you clear of the wolves.
provide you with expertise so you can make decisions that can ultimately save money on your development project knowing that every dollar saved could be going back into the classroomdirectly benefit students and have a generational impact on the communities your school serves.
make sure you never have to navigate the facilities process alone.
From start to finish, you own the project, the decisions, and the outcome.

Over these years, we’ve seen school leaders lose time and money due to issues such as:

Bad site selection
- Schools purchasing or signing long-terms leases on properties that they can’t afford, or that don’t meet their long-term needs
- Selecting sites that don’t meet the safety requirements
- Selecting sites that cost too much to retrofit

Issues with contractors/builders
- Construction details that don’t match up with the builders’ requirements
- Overpriced and miss-managed vendors
- Lack of use for E-rate vendors
- Architects delivering a project over budget
- Unmanaged contingencies slanted in an over designed budget

FRC’s solutions include:

Affordable Consulting
With tens of thousands, or even millions of dollars at stake, we often see schools making uninformed decisions, or working with overpriced consultants and suppliers. Our mission is for you to realize the maximum possible savings on your project through affordable consulting, offering an exponential return on your investment. The savings you’ll see through working with us will far overshadow our nomimal cost.

Smart Consulting
When it comes to selecting a site or choosing a vendor such as a contractor or builder to work with, we use our expertise and network of suppliers to ensure you save money wherever possible. We’ll guide you through RFPs, vet candidates, and will walk you through all pricing structures and development logistics that need to be addressed - all with an eye on helping you get the greatest bang for your buck.

Transparency & Accountability
Pricing and budget transparency across all phases of development is imperative. There are a lot of vendors who, we believe, charge too much. Our role as your partner will be to provide all pricing options available for each phase, allowing you to select the model that best fits your needs.

Assistance Navigating Development
By understanding the hurdles that come along with school development, we can help you in navigating issues that might end up costing you later on down the road. Our job is to navigate unanticipated issues ahead of time.
