History
ICF International was founded in 1969 as the Inner City Fund, a venture capital firm financing inner-city businesses. In 1972, it was reorganized as a consulting firm and renamed ICF Incorporated, focusing on energy, environmental, and engineering issues. In 1988, the firm acquired Kaiser Engineers. In the following year, the newly combined company went public and eventually traded its stock on the New York Stock Exchange. In 1999, the ICF consulting unit ended its affiliation with Kaiser Engineers through acquisition by its management and CM Equity Partners and was renamed ICF Consulting.
In 2002, ICF Consulting acquired two divisions of Arthur D. Little: Global Environment & Risk (Americas) and Public Sector Program Management.
In January 2005, ICF Consulting acquired Synergy Inc., a leading operator of strategic planning, analysis, and technology solutions in defense command and control, operations, and logistics.
In October 2005, ICF Consulting acquired Caliber Associates, a flagship provider of research and consulting in education, human resources, and social services.
In April 2006, ICF Consulting was renamed ICF International to reflect its growth into a diversified professional services firm that offers government and commercial clients advisory, implementation, and improvement services throughout the full life cycle of a program. In addition, ICF International has grown geographically to provide services throughout North America and around the globe.
