Jacobs Associates, McMillen Announce Merger
San Francisco-based engineering and consulting firm Jacobs Associates and Boise‐based engineering and construction firm McMillen LLC have merged, to form McMillen Jacobs Associates Inc.
The merger comes as a natural progression of a relationship established in 2011, when the two firms first worked together on the Lower Baker Dam Powerhouse in Concrete, WA.
The merger will offer expanded technical capabilities from diverse staff while enabling the company to geographically expand its water resource licensing, engineering and self‐performing construction group.
McMillen Jacobs Associates has been formed as an employee owned holding company, with Dan Adams serving as president/chief executive officer and Mara McMillen as chief operating officer. Rafael Castro, Mort McMillen and John Kaplin will round out the corporate leadership team serving as vice presidents for corporate development, water resources and construction management, respectively. Jacobs Associates and McMillen will both continue as wholly owned subsidiaries of McMillen Jacobs Associates, with Adams and McMillen leading each. The combined resources of the merger provide clients access to 380 staff located in 19 offices across North America, New Zealand and Australia. mcmjac.com
