What FSC does

FS Consulting, LLC (FSC) is a privately held, woman-owned architecture and engineering consulting firm headquartered in Rutherford, New Jersey. Founded in the mid-1980s (with a company-stated 25-year operating milestone in 2016), FSC offers five integrated service lines: A/E talent staffing (permanent placement, temporary staffing, and on-site project consultants under FSC payroll); facilities management with bespoke software development; medical management for built environments; HR and business consulting (including an HR Essentials subscription package with employee handbook, monthly consulting, and policy templates); and as-built survey services using CAD, BIM, laser scanning, and CAFM/CIFM capabilities. The firm has field-verified in excess of 900 million square feet across offices, hospitals, hotels, retail, industrial, and government facilities, and has completed high-profile engagements including hundreds of homes for the Hurricane Sandy 'Build It Back' recovery program.

FSC's customer base spans city, state, and federal government agencies; architecture and engineering firms; and enterprise clients in financial services, with a stated global service reach anchored in a Northeast US operating footprint. The company holds Woman-owned Business Enterprise (WBE) and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) certifications, providing contracting preference in public-sector work. Its go-to-market is sales-led and direct: enterprise relationships supplemented by SMPS association involvement, Crain's NYC Summit participation, content marketing, and third-party recruitment via Life Work Job.

FSC's business model is professional services fee-for-engagement, with a recurring HR Essentials subscription component. Revenue mechanics come primarily from staffing markups on deployed consultants, project-based facilities management and surveying fees, and consulting retainers. The firm has developed patent-pending in-house technology that reduces existing conditions survey time by nearly 50%, representing the closest thing to a differentiated technical asset in its portfolio. Management is founder-led and independent, with no disclosed institutional investors, acquisitions, or M&A activity.
