Jacobs Sverdrup (JS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., has a 50-year heritage providing advanced technology engineering services to Government and industry. We were established in 1950 to support the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the U.S. Air Force's Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) – the largest aeronautical testing complex in the world. This experience provided us with exceptional capability as we pioneered state-of-the-art facilities – wind tunnels, turbine and rocket test cells, ballistic ranges, and space environmental chambers – and contributed to virtually every major U.S. space and defense program over the intervening 50 years.

We expanded our advanced technology engineering services to other Government agencies and industry. Our customers include each service of DoD, NASA, and more than 150 commercial clients such as Boeing/McDonnell Douglas, DaimlerChrysler, Delphi, Ford Motor Company, General Electric, General Motors, Lockheed Martin, and Pratt & Whitney. In addition, we have achieved an international reputation through our work for Government and commercial customers around the world and have established a significant presence in Europe, Australia, and the Pacific Rim.

Through effective cross-sharing of technical and professional capabilities across our company, we are able to apply our expertise in new ways to provide optimized solutions for our clients. This is possible because of the specialized skills and professional dedication of Jacobs Sverdrup people – whether designing and building state-of-the-art test facilities around the world, testing advanced turbine and rocket engines, applying next-generation computational fluid dynamics codes, supporting systems acquisition and systems logistics issues, or supporting the development of smart weapons. We have received numerous awards for the quality of our services, such as ESD Outstanding Achievement Award for Design and Construction, James Cogswell Award for Outstanding Security, DaimlerChrysler Gold Awards, Saturn Corporation Quality Achievement Awards, five NASA MSFC Contractor Excellence Awards, NASA’s Software of the Year Award, and the NASA Mentor Protégé Program Goldin-Stokes Award. Many Jacobs Sverdrup people are nationally and internationally recognized as technical leaders, including leadership roles in organizations such as the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), International Test and Evaluation Association (ITEA), and National Society of Professional Engineers.

Service and trust are at the heart of our relationships with our customers, and we develop, build, and nurture these relationships by demonstrating integrity, exercising sound judgment in our business and personal dealings, and living up to our commitments – doing what we say we will do. Sustained superior performance in all of our operations is a hallmark of Jacobs Sverdrup as demonstrated by our high customer evaluation scores and high percentage of contract rewins. At Jacobs Sverdrup more than 80% of our business is for repeat clients – the result of established partnering relationships with many companies and Government organizations.
