Jacobs selected by PsiQuantum for new quantum computing facility

Jacobs (J) was selected by PsiQuantum, a global leader in quantum computing, as the Owner’s Representative for its new quantum computing facility at the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park in Chicago, delivering end-to-end support across design and construction. The Chicago project broke ground in September, and during the initial phase of site development, PsiQuantum will build an intermediate-scale test system, which will further validate quantum architecture and performance. Following this milestone, the company will initiate additional construction phases, ultimately working toward the deployment of the first utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer in the U.S. Jacobs will provide project management, architectural and engineering consultancy services and oversee the collaboration among architects, engineers, contractors, and stakeholders, while proactively managing budgets, schedules, and quality to drive project excellence.
