Jacobs (J) has announced a strategic collaboration with NVIDIA to implement the Omniverse Blueprint for AI factory digital twins. This initiative aims to revolutionize data center operations by enabling precise simulations of facility equipment efficiency, throughput, and resiliency across power, cooling, and network ecosystems.
The Omniverse Blueprint will allow engineering teams to design, simulate, and optimize data centers in highly accurate virtual environments. This will facilitate early detection of potential issues, reducing the need for costly retrofits and enhancing facility reliability. The blueprint's comprehensive simulation capabilities are designed to unify the design and operations of AI factories, introducing new integrations across crucial infrastructure systems.
Jacobs will validate and improve the end-to-end workflow of the blueprint. Their involvement builds upon a decade of digital twin technology experience within the water and transportation sectors, now extending into the expanding AI infrastructure market.
Currently, Jacobs is involved in several high-profile projects, including the SINES DC Campus in Portugal, a 1.2-gigawatt AI-scale data center leveraging renewable energy. They are also managing Xcel Energy's extensive transmission program in the U.S. and working with PsiQuantum in Australia on one of the largest utility-scale quantum computing facilities.
With an annual revenue of approximately $12 billion and a global workforce of nearly 45,000, Jacobs continues to provide comprehensive services across sectors such as advanced manufacturing, energy, and environmental. This partnership with NVIDIA further positions Jacobs at the forefront of the high-growth AI infrastructure market, offering substantial value through predictive optimization capabilities.
