As a relationship-based company, we rely on our teaming partners to help support our clients’ needs and we understand the value you bring to our business. We seek partners that align with our values, have strong and meaningful connection to the communities in which we and our clients operate, and that will advance our purpose of creating a more connected, sustainable world.

We’re committed to providing subcontracting opportunities under our U.S. federal contracts and subcontracts for small businesses.

Prospective providers of goods or services to Jacobs can register on the SAP Ariba Network.

We also use the following databases to locate small businesses for our subcontracting needs:

• System for Award Management (SAM)
• U.S. Small Business Administration's Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS)

The SAM and DSBS are free and are the main sourcing databases used by all federal agencies and their contractors. 

We recommend that your firm's profile in any database be current at all times with as much information as possible. As we identify opportunities that parallel your firm's capabilities or supplies, a solicitation may be sent to you requesting a proposal submittal.

We have a policy signed annually by our CEO to provide subcontracting opportunities to small businesses to the maximum extent practicable under our federal contracts.

It is Jacobs’ policy to maintain a strong competitive supplier base that meets legal and contractual requirements by and for our clients by building meaningful partnerships with small businesses that provide exceptional value to our clients, our projects, and the communities we serve.
