History

Consensus Systems Technologies Corp., a systems engineering consulting firm, was incorporated in April 2001. Prior to this, it was known as Jaffe Engineering and Development Industries which was founded in 1996 and specialized in developing and maintaining national and regional ITS architectures and related analysis for Federal, State and Local governments, Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), related agencies and organizations and the Intelligent Transportation Systems industry. Our work developing international architectures spans three continents, and our work deploying regional ITS architectures cover many states.

Since then, our systems engineering expertise has also expanded to other areas of ITS, including Transit Systems and ITS Standards.
