Hear From Our Clients

JCA consultants are terrific to work with. They are very responsive to our deadlines, technical knowledge, and capacity of each employee. JCA has become an essential part of our team.

Benjamin Krevolin, Chief Advancement Officer
Bard Graduate Center

JCA has been by our side through a Blackbaud CRM conversion and now the transformation and modernization of our Foundation financial systems and transition to FE NXT. Their partnership and expertise, especially in design and documentation, have been invaluable.

Jenny Flynn, Senior Vice President, Development Services
University of Arizona Foundation

One of the first things I did when I started in this role was to call JCA. I knew that we needed to overhaul our data management systems, and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without JCA’s support and expertise. Now we are ready to take our fundraising and donor management to the next level.

Darcy Douglas, JD, Vice President of Advancement and Alumni
South Texas College of Law Houston

JCA Consulting was an exceptional partner to Union in our CRM search. The entire team has a wealth of expertise around technology, business practice, and project management. They guided us through assessment, planning, and vendor evaluation with expertise and efficiency.

Kathleen D. McCann, Director of Advancement Information Services
Union College

JCA took the time to understand the culture of our organization and provided recommendations that align with our goals but also are appropriate for our staffing ecosystem. They provided creative solutions, introducing us to ways that we could better utilize our existing technology now and provided us a roadmap for the future. They are absolutely outstanding at helping an organization integrate and maximize people, processes and tools.
