The two biggies would be the style of headset and the front derailleur. Between these two ROAD bikes all the rest should swap over without any other issues. On a broader range if you were swapping from a road to a hybrid then some other factors many come up in terms of BB widths, rear dropout spacing, etc.
The FD issues are that there's tab or collar mounting. And if collar mounted then the collar size matters. Since they are both road bikes the derailleurs will both be bottom pull. But the collar mounting will likely force you to buy a new FD.
The only other issue is the headset. There's 1 inch and 1 1/8. But there is also zero stack integrated and regular styles of head set. So again this is something to check.
Why are you swapping the parts over? Is the Jamis damaged or the wrong size? If it's just the wrong size and you got it AND can get the Sequoia for a deal AND can do the work yourself then it could still be a good way to go. But if you'd be paying a shop to do the work then such deals quickly spiral up to where they are no longer a deal.
