- About Us
Our Journey
When we began our journey in 1995 we had a vision.
Our vision was not to be the biggest, but we definitely wanted to be the best.
Our aspiration was to create a business with great people, producing great work and for clients who enjoyed working with us.
Over the past 16 years we have travelled on an amazing journey and grown a business to be proud of. We have successfully created a reputation for technical ability, for truly innovative ideas, for being a team of really nice people to work with and one that always achieves the highest standards in everything we do. These values hold great importance for the future of JBA and our success to follow.
In the beginning, there was nothing...
Depending upon your perspective, 16 years doesn’t feel like a very long time when you look at the great progress we have made. When we reflect on the development of JBA over this period we see what we have really achieved.
Employing and working with great people, new offices, two mergers, exciting projects and several logos!
We wanted to create something special. A consultancy business that combined the highest levels of scientific and engineering knowledge with practical advice.
In 1995 we created JBA.
What happened next is shown on our company timeline
The road ahead
At JBA we believe that change is inevitable. We actively seek change in order to keep exceeding the expectations of our clients.
We change, we innovate and we aim to be at the very forefront in everything we do. We have structured the JBA family of businesses to meet the challenges of our future.
