PA Consulting, part of Jacobs: connecting strategy and delivery

Together, we define strategy, design the solution and deliver it — end to end

JacobsPABanner

Organizations delivering complex, large-scale programs often rely on multiple providers across advisory, digital innovation and program delivery. 

Jacobs and PA Consulting bring together strategic advisory, innovation and deep delivery expertise as a single, integrated partner — enabling clients to move from strategy to delivery with fewer interfaces and greater confidence.

Most firms design strategy or deliver projects. We do both — seamlessly.

A comprehensive partner

With full ownership of PA Consulting, clients benefit from fully integrated advisory, digital and delivery solutions at global scale.

The result: a single, accountable partner across the entire asset lifecycle — from early strategy and planning through design, program management and implementation.

Together, we turn bold ideas into practical, deliverable solutions that empower clients to solve complex challenges and deliver measurable results.

From strategy to delivery — fully integrated

Jacobs and PA bring together the capabilities needed to deliver at every stage — from early strategy and innovation through design, program delivery and implementation. Instead of managing multiple service providers, clients get one team that connects vision to delivery — reducing complexity, accelerating decisions and improving outcomes. 

Whether it's navigating emerging trends, optimizing performance or delivering major capital programs, we turn ambition into action.

We're supporting a major U.S. transportation agency as they deliver one of the nation’s largest infrastructure investments. Jacobs’ extensive program and technical delivery experience and PA's leading organizational readiness capability uniquely positioned us to create the foundation for years of successful program delivery.

Future-focused strategy, delivered in the real world

Together, we enable impactful change, supporting clients to align long-term strategy with practical execution — so that solutions are not only visionary, but achievable. Jacobs brings a proven track record of design, procurement and construction of complex, highly technical programs, while PA brings additional expertise in future-focused advisory, advanced artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities and human-centric transformation. 

We enable clients to make better decisions, adapt faster and deliver positive change.

We helped a major U.S.-based global manufacturing brand’s board to make the right decisions when supporting a strategic vision and business plan for an engine manufacturing site. Our combined expertise of real estate and planning, engineering and strategic advisory capabilities found ways to preserve jobs, increase revenue and dramatically change the site for the better.

Outcome-driven approach

Jacobs and PA provide a clear roadmap with end-to-end support and the confidence to deliver meaningful outcomes. Together, we enable clients navigate emerging challenges, optimize performance and create lasting value for their operations, communities and stakeholders.

We worked with a state-owned water utility to understand the water cyber threat landscape, combining industry-leading cybersecurity expertise with transformational programmatic insights to embed cybersecurity in its operations and protect vital infrastructure.

Innovation with real-world impact

We combine innovation, digital expertise and strategic insight with deep engineering and delivery capability — so ideas don’t just inspire, they perform. By grounding innovation in operational reality, we implement solutions that are scalable, sustainable and ready for the real world. 

Leveraging our complementary strengths, we developed ambitious and deliverable environmental, health and safety strategies for a groundbreaking new aviation client. Jacobs and PA challenged one another to ensure the strategies were achievable and realistic from a technical delivery perspective and our collective approach enabled us to embed sustainability from the start.

With Jacobs and PA Consulting, clients get more than advice or delivery — they get both, working as one to turn bold ideas into real-world outcomes.

*In March 2026, Jacobs completed its acquisition of the remaining equity interest in PA Consulting, a leading innovation and transformation consultancy.

  • Creating major events that leave lasting experiences

    Authenticity and disciplined customer experience turn major events into experiences that cut through choice overload and win attention. Nowhere is this more evident — and important — than in the Middle East, where scale alone is no longer the differentiator.

    For Jacobs and PA, placemaking is a delivery discipline. PA focuses on how people respond to an environment, including cues that shape behavior and perception. Jacobs translates this into reality by shaping spaces and movement, so the experience works at scale.
