LEADERSHIP WITH PASSION

For more than 40 years, FMG has played an integral role in advancing projects that enhance the public good. We provide the backbone in the design of major transportation projects throughout California. Our work is intuitive and relative with solutions that meet the expectations of transit agencies, airports, and public agencies. Our designs solve complex transportation challenges, taking the commuter experience to a higher level of mobility.

Our Services

FMG offers program and project management, architecture planning and design, sustainability, universal design, and wayfinding services. Collaboration with our clients and teaming partners at the initial stages ensures successful, cost-effective, lifecycle-based projects. 

Architectural Design

FMG implements a rigorous approach to planning, design, and documentation. We design spaces with materials that are efficient, high-quality, cost-effective, low-maintenance, and sustainable. We understand integration of the needs of users with operational and functional requirements, as well as responding to community and stakeholder concerns.

Program Management

With our deep knowledge of transportation projects in California, FMG supports all areas of design review, technical support, and quality assurance. We effectively and efficiently respond to work assignments as a trusted partner to ensure successful project outcomes. FMG’s broad experience includes peer review of transit systems, understanding of FTA processes, procedures, and guidelines, constructability planning, and design-build oversight.
