About The Company
Beginning in 1998, the mission of SchoolFM has always been focused on providing top level facility management and maintenance services for schools and churches. Our model then, and now, has been to provide expertise and skill on a “cost” basis. Over the years, we have grown our services to include a wide range of skill levels, from basic custodial help to very technical support. However, the core service SchoolFM provides is facility management. Our services are unique in that the SchoolFM facility manager assigned to the customer site becomes a part of that customer family; so much so that most teachers and customer staff are completely unaware that the site manager is actually an employee of SchoolFM. The SchoolFM model is unique not only in how we charge for services and provide customers with detailed cost information, but in how we are able to assemble extraordinary levels of expertise while keeping costs to a minimum. The facilities of your church or school are not your mission, but rather a tool for the implementation of your mission. Yet good stewardship demands effective and efficient care for these facilities. These are not just buzz words. All of our customers seek effective results and they want them in an efficient manner. Our mission is to make this happen for you.
