Jacobs to Optimize Data Centers with NVIDIA AI Factory Digital Twin Blueprint

Digital twins drive efficiency and resiliency of AI factories

Blueprint to create more reliable power, cooling and network ecosystems

DALLAS, May 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacobs (NYSE:J) to advance data centers via NVIDIA's Omniverse Blueprint for AI NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for AI factory digital twins – a blueprint to improve the design, simulation, deployment and operations of AI factories.

Jacobs will test and enhance the end-to-end blueprint workflow, enabling accurate simulations of facility equipment efficiency, throughput and resiliency. Created to unify the design and simulation of billions of components to build digital twins of AI Factories, the blueprint will introduce new integrations across the AI Factory's power, cooling and network ecosystems. Through this collaboration, engineering teams can design, simulate and optimize factories within physically accurate virtual environments, enabling early issue detection and the creation of smarter, more reliable facilities.

"For more than a decade, Jacobs has used digital twin technologies for clients in water and transportation—revolutionizing the way we design, build, operate and maintain critical infrastructure," said Jacobs Executive Vice President Koti Vadlamudi. "Now, AI data centers are being built and intelligently designed with digital twins— creating precise, real-time replicas of physical infrastructure to predict potential issues, optimize operations and positively influence energy consumption — ensuring a more connected and sustainable future for our communities."

Jacobs is solving complex production load challenges globally across the Data Center, Energy and Water sectors. At Portugal's SINES DC Campus by Start Campus, we're delivering a 1.2-gigawatt AI-scale data center powered entirely by renewable energy and cooled with a cutting-edge zero-water system. In the U.S., we're program manager and owner's engineer for Xcel Energy's multi-billion-dollar transmission and distribution reliability program while also designing and managing the construction of a new wastewater reuse system for data centers in central Virginia. In Australia, we're working with PsiQuantum on master planning, schematic design, and owner's engineer services for one of the largest utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers in development.

At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow – delivering outcomes and solutions for the world's most complex challenges. With approximately $12 billion in annual revenue and a team of almost 45,000, we provide end-to-end services in advanced manufacturing, cities & places, energy, environmental, life sciences, transportation and water. From advisory and consulting, feasibility, planning, design, program and lifecycle management, we're creating a more connected and sustainable world.
