Engineers who are great communicators? That’s FSi.
Every day, our teams focus on making our clients’ projects succeed. That means we take time from the beginning to understand your goals, and then we can take them on as our own. In fact, we take the time to train every person on our staff in the skill of asking clear questions and getting clear answers. We take that information and use it as a basis for holistic, impeccable design. And when we think we’ve done our job, we come to you to make sure that everything we give you is exactly what you want and need. We don’t call any job complete until you let us know you are happy with our work.
When it makes sense, we use technology to improve our communication, like 3D images and motion graphics to show building occupants complex duct routing or crowded mechanical spaces. Our computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models analyze airflow patterns, and also let project stakeholders see the areas of a building that will have enough natural ventilation to provide summertime cooling, or controllable airflow patterns for sensitive industrial processes.
Much of our excellent communication is decidedly low tech. It's based on our willingness to spend time on a job site, listening to and learning from maintenance staff and other stakeholders. It results from our commitment to understanding owner and clients needs, and making sure they thoroughly understand their options. In the end, our job is to give our clients the information they need, in a format that's useful to them, so they can make the best decisions for their projects.

What We Do
We provide the services you expect from an MEP engineering firm, such as design, construction administration, and cost estimating, and we perform them impeccably. We also offer some less common services, such as energy audits, CFD airflow analysis for industrial applications and natural ventilation, and pipe stress modeling for steam systems.

Working with FSi
You can count on us to
Embrace a good challenge.
Unique facilities, sensitive processes, aggressive schedules, and ambitious sustainability goals. We've built a reputation for developing practical, maintainable solutions for complex problems.
Meet your timelines.
That’s one of the reasons we have so many schedule-sensitive organizations – school districts, universities, and major manufacturing companies – among our repeat clients.
Be an effective teammate.
We’ve led hundreds of project teams and supported hundreds more as a subconsultant. This gives us good perspective on what it takes to be a good teammate, and we’ve incorporated it into how we work.
Thank you for everything. Your help has been so much above and beyond what other engineers have been able to provide."Project Manager Industrial Client
