Jacobs Solutions Inc. announced the launch of its Flood Platform on October 9, 2025. The platform is a subscription‑based software‑as‑a‑service offering built on Microsoft Azure that unifies and streamlines flood modeling processes for critical infrastructure projects worldwide. It is the first purpose‑built tool designed to standardize how users manage, view, and analyze flood‑related data.
The Flood Platform leverages Jacobs’ expertise in digital solutions, cloud integration, cybersecurity, data management, and artificial intelligence. It integrates with trusted flood modeling tools such as Jacobs’ Flood Modeller and provides a secure, scalable environment for uploading data, managing access permissions, performing analysis, and collaborating with internal teams and external stakeholders. The platform was originally developed for internal use and has supported project delivery for more than 15 years before being released as a commercial product.
The launch is significant because the platform has already been instrumental in major projects, including Melbourne Water’s Flood Mapping Program and the Environment Agency’s Oxford‑Cambridge Arc Flood Risk Investment Study, which together unlocked more than $134 billion in economic value. By offering a high‑margin SaaS model, Jacobs expands its digital services portfolio and creates a recurring revenue stream that complements its core consulting and engineering businesses. The Flood Platform aligns with Jacobs’ strategic focus on infrastructure, water, and environmental markets, positioning the company to capture growth in the increasingly data‑driven, climate‑resilient infrastructure sector.
