JFC Engineers & Surveyors

What JFC Engineers & Surveyors does

JFC Engineers & Surveyors is a multi-disciplinary professional services firm headquartered in Rock Springs, Wyoming, founded in 1964. The firm provides integrated civil engineering, land surveying, geotechnical engineering, construction materials testing, and GIS services to government entities, commercial developers, industrial and energy operators, and residential developers across Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. The company operates three functional departments — an Engineering Department, a full-service Surveying Department, and an AASHTO-accredited Materials Testing Laboratory — supported by 22 employees including Professional Engineers, Professional Land Surveyors, a Professional Geologist, FAA Part 107-certified Remote Pilots, and accredited laboratory technicians.

The firm's technical stack is built on industry-standard surveying and engineering platforms: Trimble SX10 Scanning Total Station for terrestrial laser scanning, Trimble Business Center for data processing, AutoCAD Civil 3D for design, fixed-wing and quadcopter UAVs for aerial photogrammetry, and AASHTO-accredited laboratory equipment for materials testing. Differentiated capabilities include 360-degree point-cloud scanning at up to 26,600 points per second, multi-state land surveying licensure, and proprietary GIS databases covering abandoned mine lands and as-built pipeline systems in the Rock Springs area dating back to 1968.

JFC generates revenue through project-based professional services fees billed to clients on a per-engagement basis. The go-to-market motion is direct enterprise/field sales targeting public works departments, planning and zoning authorities, private developers, and repeat clients. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is governed by contract scope and, for government work, formal bidding processes. Customer segments span municipal/county/state government, commercial retail and hospitality developers, oil and gas/mining industrial operators, and residential subdivision developers. Marketing is conducted primarily through the firm's project portfolio website, professional association affiliations, and longstanding relationships with local planning boards and engineering departments rather than paid digital channels.
