Sports Facility FF&E and OS&E Procurement
Maximize your budget and streamline the procurement process with expert support from planning to installation
Expert furniture, fixtures, and equipment procurement for facility success
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) and operating supplies and equipment (OS&E) are critical to guest experience, daily operations, and long-term efficiency. But without expert guidance, procurement costs can escalate, timelines can be delayed, and essential items may be overlooked.
Fortunately, the Sports Facilities Companies’ (SFC) FF&E and OS&E procurement services give clients confidence that their facilities will be operationally ready on opening day. With a wealth of experience sourcing over 850 sports-specific products critical for play and programming, ranging from basketball equipment and wood flooring to concession gear, smallware, POS systems, and maintenance equipment, we bring unparalleled expertise to the procurement process.
Leveraging our purchasing power and industry connections, we negotiate the lowest market prices, often surpassing state and national co-op pricing. Additionally, our coordination with the design and construction teams ensures seamless delivery and installation.

“When we went out looking for a partner, we couldn’t have found a better one than SFC- with the knowledge to operate these facilities, operate them efficiently and effectively, and be willing to take on all kinds of new partners. This is a huge project, The Sports Empire, to the extent that it will take many different cooks in one single kitchen, which demands that we all get along and that we all have a common vision. When SFC was willing to make that commitment to the city of Ontario, it made it so much easier to be able to work with them and other partners to pull together this vision.”

“It gave us data to back up what we’re doing. It shared information from what’s happening across the country with new trends and what other destinations are doing and finding success in and so it really has impacted the community, because it’s open city leadership’s eyes into in terms of how we can really support new initiatives.”
