OWNER-GRADE ASSESSMENT

Facilities Risk & Operational Condition Assessment

FROCA delivers objective, senior-led facilities assessments focused on uncovering operational risk, deferred maintenance, and capital exposure.

WHAT THIS ASSESSMENT IS

An Owner-Grade Assessment — Not a Checklist Inspection

FROCA Group provides real-world facilities risk and operational condition assessments led by senior engineering leadership. This is not a checklist inspection, a desktop review, or a generic consulting exercise. Each engagement is designed to surface the risks that materially affect ownership — how systems actually operate under load, age, and real conditions.

Assessments are structured to support ownership decision-making, not report production. Findings focus on exposure, failure points, and capital implications that owners, asset managers, insurers, and advisors need to understand.

In simple terms: we inspect and evaluate the mechanical, electrical, and life-safety systems that protect your building’s value — so owners understand what’s at risk before failures, fines, or unplanned capital costs occur.

Core Assessment Services

FROCA’s services are structured to support ownership-level decisions related to risk exposure, capital planning, and asset strategy.
Facilities Risk Assessment

Owner-grade evaluation of operational, life-safety, and capital exposure.

Operational Condition Review

Assessment of system performance under real operating conditions.

CapEx Planning Support

Identification of deferred maintenance and future capital implications.

Acquisition Due Diligence (if applicable)

Risk-focused evaluation supporting buy, hold, or reposition decisions.

RISK OUTCOMES

What the Assessment Is Designed to Address

Each assessment is organized around core risk domains that directly impact asset performance and ownership exposure.

01

Operational Reliability Risk

Identifies system conditions that threaten uptime, service continuity, and day-to-day operational stability.

02

Life Safety & Compliance Exposure

Surfaces conditions that create safety risk, regulatory exposure, or potential liability for ownership and operators.

03

Deferred Maintenance & Capital Risk

Evaluates deferred maintenance and system degradation that impact capital planning, asset value, and long-term performance.

These domains form the foundation of an owner-grade evaluation focused on decision-making, not maintenance reporting.

Building Systems Reviewed

Assessments include a comprehensive review of critical building systems with direct impact on risk, safety, and capital exposure.
  • HVAC (RTUs, chillers, boilers, controls)

  • Electrical distribution & emergency power

  • Fire & life-safety systems

  • Plumbing & domestic water

  • Vertical transportation (elevators)

  • Building envelope

  • BAS / controls

  • Back-of-house operations

Use of Findings

How Clients Use the Findings

Assessment findings are structured to support ownership-level decisions, not maintenance task lists. Clients use FROCA assessments to evaluate operational exposure, inform capital planning, support insurance and risk discussions, and guide acquisition or stabilization strategies.

The focus is clarity — enabling ownership and stakeholders to understand where risk exists, what matters most, and how it may impact performance and liability over time.
