Business Wire
Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (NYSE:JEC) announced that its work
with NASA Langley Research Center has been chosen by
ReliabilityWeb® to receive the 2017 Best Reliability Program of the
Year Award by UPTIME Magazine.
When NASA sought to develop reliability-enhancing maintenance
strategies for Langley Research Center, they partnered with Jacobs
who brought its industry-leading suite of solutions, including
engineering, analytics and condition-based monitoring to prevent
system failures, to optimize operations and increase the life of
assets at NASA Langley. The 788-acre NASA campus includes more than
270 buildings and mission-critical facilities, such as
subsonic-to-hypersonic wind tunnels used in aeronautic testing.
As a result, NASA Langley realized substantially improved system
reliability with the avoidance of $5.3 million in maintenance costs
since implementing the Jacobs recommended approach in 2015, and has
averted unplanned downtime on monitored assets for three years
running.
“Jacobs has twice been named NASA’s Large Business Prime
Contractor of the Year,” said Jacobs Aerospace and Technology
President Terry Hagen. “We’re honored to serve and share in the
recognition of a technologically complex reliability program that
exceeded objectives for another mission accomplished in our
longstanding partnership.”
Jacobs leads the global professional services sector delivering
solutions for a more connected, sustainable world. With $15 billion
in fiscal 2017 revenue when combined with full-year CH2M revenues
and a talent force of more than 74,000, Jacobs provides a full
spectrum of services including scientific, technical, professional
and construction- and program-management for business, industrial,
commercial, government and infrastructure sectors. For more
