History
JFA was founded by Jack Faucett. After pioneering the discipline
of input-output modeling, as part of a team led by Nobel Laureate
Wassily Leontief, Mr. Faucett founded JFA in 1963. JFA’s diversity
of studies in the first few years included developing capital
investment forecasting techniques for the National Economic Strength
Model and documenting potential timber use in Appalachia. Since
then, the diversity of our clients and successfully completed projects
has grown exponentially. JFA has completed more than 1,500 tasks on over 700 contracts for
all levels of government, industry, and the non-profit sector.
