  • We do not direct clients to a call center. 
  • FSO PROS® is a mid-sized FSO consulting firm, which means that in addition to being able to provide our clients with a dedicated primary point-of-contact, we work as a team and have the benefit of redundant support when the primary POC is not available.
  • Our team members average over 12 years of experience as an FSO or AFSO. 
  • FSO PROS® has a methodical hiring process, vetting our professionals for the proper skillset, experience, relevant training, and consulting aptitude.  
  • The team members who provide on-going support are full-time employees with FSO PROS®.
  • We work remotely but can travel to the Client’s facility for self-inspections, DCSA audits or special projects.
  • Our IT posture is compliant with NIST 800.171 (CMMC Leve 2); we are on the Microsoft GCC enclave, and we have the capability of sending and receiving encrypted emails to handle CUI.

FSO PROS® has multiple service options to meet our clients’ needs. We start with a discovery call to learn about the organization and their security program, answer any questions they have, and share our complete SOW with the engagement options. We can accommodate a SOW change with 30-day’s notice as we understand that our client’s support needs may change over time.
