We're All About Protecting What Matters

Since 1939, we have dedicated ourselves to fire protection engineering, initially in the United States and now worldwide. Today, our expertise, commitment and passion extend across additional domains — including accessibility consulting, risk and hazard analysis, process safety, forensic investigations, security risk and emergency management as well as digital innovation across many of our services.

Our History

A Story of Growth, Innovation + Success

Jensen Hughes was launched in 2014 through the historic merger of Hughes Associates and Rolf Jensen & Associates (RJA), two of the most experienced and respected fire protection engineering companies at the time.

Since then, we’ve expanded through strategic acquisitions, growing our global presence and service offerings.

Through the integration of more than 30 engineering and consulting firms, our global reach has expanded significantly, establishing a market presence 7x larger than that of our closest competitor.

Our legacy firms trace their origins back to 1939, a rich history that spans over 80 years of knowledge and innovation worldwide.

Environment, Communities + Standards

As an industry leader, we build a better world by providing innovative solutions for the most complex issues facing society. We assist wildfire risk, consult on energy storage system solutions, safely advance carbon-free infrastructure like nuclear power, and commercial workplaces, and strive to set an example in our industry by putting our people first.

Hazard Mitigation

From power generation to transmission and distribution to energy storage, our experts are at the forefront of hazard mitigation, helping identify, analyze, and mitigate risks critical to any organization’s safety and continuity. Whether it’s fossil-fuel or clean energy sources, like nuclear, hydrogen or energy storage, we account for site-specific factors to ensure proper assessments, risk-informed engineering and designs, and appropriate technology usage.
