2022 U.S.-Booked Air Volume: $25M
Consolidated U.S. TMC: BCD

Engineering and professional services firm Jacobs spent $25 million on U.S.-booked air travel in 2022, more than twice the $10.3 million spent in 2021, according to BTN estimates.

In fiscal 2022, Jacobs introduced internal carbon pricing of $50 per metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions on corporate non-billable business travel, with proceeds used to fund carbon reduction and removal initiatives.

The company achieved carbon neutrality across all operations and business travel in 2020. Jacobs plans to be net zero for their entire value chain by 2040. In fiscal 2022, business travel emissions, although rebounding post-pandemic, are still 58 percent less than fiscal 2019 levels.

For its 2022 fiscal year, which ended Sept. 27, 2022, revenue rose 6 percent to $14.9 billion while operating income jumped 33 percent to $918 million.

Jacobs has more than 60,000 employees. The company recently announced plans to spin off its Critical Mission Solutions business in 2024 to create two separate companies.
