About Surbana Jurong

Surbana Jurong Fact Sheet

Surbana Jurong Private Limited (SJ) has a rich 50-year heritage in the development of Singapore’s urban, industrial and infrastructure landscape. SJ traces its roots to the Housing Development Board (HDB) and the Jurong Town Corporation (JTC), agencies synonymous with Singapore’s early township and industrialisation efforts.

Headquartered in Singapore and wholly owned by Temasek Holdings, SJ was formed in June 2015 through the merger of renowned urban planning and affordable housing design expert Surbana International Consultants, and Jurong International, Singapore’s premiere industrial and infrastructure engineering design stalwart.

The aim of the merger was to form an entity that provides one stop complete value chain consultancy services to the development industry in Singapore and abroad.

On 1 August 2016, SJ acquired world-renowned infrastructure engineering designer SMEC Holdings to expand its capabilities in the infrastructure sector. It also announced on 13 October 2016 that it has acquired 100% shareholdings in AETOS Holdings Pte Ltd (AETOS) from Temasek Holdings, which will expand SJ’s overall service offerings to include safety and security capabilities.

With these latest acquisitions, the SJ Group will now have a global workforce of 13,000 employees in 114 offices across 44 countries in Asia, Australia, the Middle East, Africa and the Americas, with an annual turnover of around S$1.3 billion.

SJ is presently one of the largest Asia-based urban, industrial and infrastructure consulting firms. Leveraging technology and creativity, SJ provides one-stop consultancy solutions across the entire value chain of the urbanisation, industrialisation and infrastructure domains.

SJ’s motto ‘Building Cities, Shaping Lives’ reflects its belief that development is more than just steel and concrete. SJ creates spaces and designs infrastructure where people live, work and play, shaping cities into homes with sustainable jobs where communities and businesses can flourish.

Surbana Jurong Logo, Tagline & Brand Story

Singapore’s spectacular transformation from a colonial outpost to the cosmopolitan city it is today serves as a constant inspiration for everything we do. Success in this context means going beyond functional needs to uplift the lives of those living and working in the spaces we create. ‘Building Cities, Shaping Lives’ defines how we view each new development as an opportunity to fulfil aspirations and enrich lives. Through development of quality housing, work spaces and infrastructure, we redefine cities and transform them into sustainable urban spaces where communities and businesses can thrive.

The SJ logo is the signature of our brand. The unified font expresses the singularity of Surbana Jurong and the strong collaborative culture that comes together in helping our clients and partners achieve their objectives. The red dot expresses the completeness of our scope and capability that has grown out of our heritage in Singapore and the region.
