Inspection + Resilience Consulting
Grace Design Studios’ Inspection + Resilience Consulting services help organizations understand how their facilities perform today—and how they can endure tomorrow. We combine disciplined inspection, risk assessment, and resilience planning to protect people, operations, and long‑term investment.
Our teams evaluate buildings, systems, and infrastructure with the same rigor we bring to design and engineering—connecting observed conditions to performance, safety, and operational impact. The result is clarity that supports confident decision‑making.
As a trusted partner in disaster recovery, we are well-equipped to navigate the complex requirements of FEMA and other government agencies. We understand the importance of complying with FEMA’s regulations and can work with you to ensure that your project meets all of the necessary requirements. Our portfolio contains projects that have required detailed information to be provided to GOSHEP and FEMA with 100% of the funding coming from Federal Public Assistance.
Over the past 18 years, we have successfully completed over $550 million in FEMA-funded projects. We have designed numerous facilities in full compliance with FEMA standards and have extensive experience with FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. We maintain a comprehensive library of FEMA documents, including resources from the FEMA Building Science Branch on floodproofing and wind-loading building foundations. In alignment with these Grant Programs, our building designs consistently follow FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation goals. Additionally, we have completed projects using CDBG funding, working closely with local officials and community leaders to provide on-the-ground evaluations and architectural assistance.
