Facility Management Solutions

Developing management solutions for leisure, sport and community facilities can be complex. It requires deep operational expertise, a strong understanding of governance models and up-to-date knowledge of procurement and performance monitoring. At FMG Consulting, we help public and education sector clients identify, implement and manage the most effective operating solutions for their facilities.

Whether you’re reviewing an existing contract, bringing facilities in-house, planning to outsource or considering other options, we can help.

Management options appraisal

Helping you understand all the delivery models: in-house management, trust, LATCO or private options

Procurement and contracts

Helping you through the entire procurement process from tender development to evaluating bids and awarding contracts

Insourcing and LATCO setup

Providing practical support for local authorities bringing services back in-house or setting up a Local Authority Trading Company (LATCO)

Interim management

Experienced leisure professionals ready to step in and provide short-term management while longer-term arrangements are secured

Contract monitoring

Ensuring your operator delivers on KPIs, contract obligations, and value for money

We don’t believe in off-the shelf solutions. At FMG our focus is on helping you get the most from your facilities and maximising operational efficiency. We can help you improve your facility’s performance both financially and socially.

We aim to help drive income streams, reduce running costs, secure the right operator or delivery model, ensure compliance with legislation and national guidance, and boost the social and economic value of your services.

By partnering with us you’ll gain a clearer understanding of the measures necessary to optimise your services and better meet your community’s needs.

Why FMG?

Our team has extensive sector experience with senior professionals who have run public leisure facilities themselves. We’ve successfully worked with clients throughout the country on large-scale tenders, implementing agency contracts and monitoring complex partnerships.

We understand the challenges you face, the current market conditions and the questions you have around facilities management. Whether it’s the market appetite for bidding, how agency contracts work, vetting potential operators or simply how you monitor and manage contracts more effectively, we have the answers, backed up by real-world experience.
