Jacobs has been selected by Northern Ireland Water to provide professional services for a significant water and wastewater infrastructure improvement program.
This new framework agreement will see Jacobs support Northern Ireland Water in delivering its six-year investment plan, which aims to upgrade the region's water and wastewater infrastructure.
Jacobs' scope of work will encompass a range of services, including feasibility studies, design engineering, climate change management, and network modelling. The company will also play a key role in developing climate adaptation and net-zero strategies for Northern Ireland Water.
The framework agreement has an initial term of four years, with an option to extend for an additional four years. This long-term partnership will enable Jacobs to contribute to the sustainable development of Northern Ireland's water infrastructure.
"Jacobs continues to support Northern Ireland Water with major infrastructure upgrades that improve the capacity and efficiency of critical water and wastewater services," said Jacobs Senior Vice President Kate Kenny. "With this new framework, we'll bring capabilities to help Northern Ireland Water increase the resilience of their water and wastewater assets while mitigating the effects of climate change."
Jacobs was previously appointed as a design consultant to Northern Ireland Water's Major Project Partnership Framework in 2022, and as Sustainability Reporting Partner under the Crown Commercial Services Management Consultancy Framework in 2024.
Across the island of Ireland, Jacobs serves clients in sectors spanning Advanced Manufacturing, Cities & Places, Energy, Environmental, Life Sciences, Transportation and Water.
