Jacobs was selected by England's Environment Agency to design, develop and implement the National Flood Risk Assessment 2 (NaFRA2), a pioneering cloud computing system that will help create a step-change in the quality and scope of England's national flood risk information.

Jacobs has been awarded a contract to design and build a new Commercial Vehicle Advanced Propulsion Laboratory for Ford at its Dunton Campus and U.K. headquarters in Essex. The appointment follows Ford's announcement of an overall investment of $28 million (£23 million) to construct the new facility.

As we celebrate National Public Works Week, May 17 to 22, we’re highlighting how Jacobs is playing a key role in the rhythm of a community.

Offering a framework for essential, transferable skills from school to work, from entry-level to management roles and from a career in one industry to another.

Jacobs was selected by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to provide Research Laboratory Support (RLS) for the EPA Office of Research and Development at Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. With a maximum potential award to Jacobs of $100 million over a five-year base period, the contract went into effect April 1, 2020.

To celebrate National Public Works Week, we’re sharing what some of our teams nationwide have been up to, all while taking precautions and practicing social distancing!

Can architecture help us successfully respond to the COVID-19 crisis?

In September 2017, Hurricane Maria devastated Dominica, St. Croix and Puerto Rico, causing wide-spread flooding, wind damage, major infrastructure loss and power outages.

Jacobs' projects, Zoo Interchange Reconstruction, Olmsted Locks and Dam, and Queensferry Crossing were among only 10 projects from around the globe selected by American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) as Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement (OCEA) honor award recipients. Established in 1960, the honor celebrates superior civil engineering skills and projects which represent a significant contribution to civil engineering progress and society. From this pool of 10 honorees, ASCE also selected the Queensferry Crossing project as one of the top three projects, earning it a bronze award.

Through a referral from the Royal Bank of Canada, our capital and transactions advisory, technical and traffic engineering team advised our client Ullico to complete its first toll road investment.

Where others saw school closures as the end of their STEAM field trips and education, our team in Tampa, Florida saw an opportunity to go virtual and reach even more students.

Jacobs was awarded an architect and engineering design services contract to help the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) replace, modernize and sustain more than 13,000 facilities that support the National Air Space (NAS). The NAS infrastructure, operated by the FAA's Air Traffic Control Facilities and Engineering Services group, includes Air Route Traffic Control Centers, Airport Traffic Control Towers, Terminal Radar Approach Control facilities, unstaffed structures such as radar towers and other FAA owned, operated or sponsored facilities.
