\n DALLAS<\/span>, July 27, 2021<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Jacobs<\/a> (NYSE:J) was selected to support\u00a0Space Hub Sutherland<\/a>, which has the potential to become the U.K.’s first satellite launch site.<\/p>\n

On behalf of the Caithness and North Sutherland Regeneration Partnership<\/a>, Jacobs will assess the local supply chain and produce a report on how available skills, such as advanced engineering, asset management and avionics could transfer to the space industry, including from the nuclear sector at nearby Dounreay<\/a> and the defense sector in Moray<\/span>. Jacobs will also examine potential socio-economic impacts in the region, conduct a gap analysis and identify further investment and actions required for a range of potential growth scenarios.<\/p>\n

Highlands and Islands Enterprise is developing the Space Hub Sutherland project, which is the first vertical launch site to secure planning permission in the U.K. The site is slated to host the Scottish-manufactured Orbex Prime<\/a> low-carbon fuel rocket and could begin launching low-earth orbit communication and observation satellites as early as next year from a site on the Mh\u00f2ine Peninsula.<\/p>\n

“Our research, economic modeling and strategy planning will identify what needs to be done to create a space cluster of specialized industries in northern Scotland<\/span>, supported by supply chain, local skills and talent, and infrastructure capable of sustaining its growth,” said Jacobs Critical Mission Solutions International Senior Vice President Clive White<\/span>. “With estimates that the U.K.’s space industry will be worth $5.6 billion<\/span> (\u00a34 billion) by 2030, this is a huge opportunity for the area with potential to create many high-value jobs. During this project, we will leverage our teams supporting NASA, where Jacobs is the largest services provider<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Space Hub Sutherland Project Director, Roy Kirk<\/span>, said: “This project is important for the prosperity of the Highlands and the opportunity to reach back into Jacobs’ deep experience and capability in the space sector, plus their decades of local experience at Dounreay, is a critical competitive advantage for us.”<\/p>\n

At Jacobs, we’re challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world’s most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good. With $14 billion<\/span> in revenue and a talent force of approximately 55,000, Jacobs provides a full spectrum of professional services including consulting, technical, scientific and project delivery for the government and private sector.
