Acquisition extends Jensen Hughes’ geographic reach to New Zealand<\/span>, a high-growth region with a mature building and fire regulatory regime; establishes a base for future expansion<\/i><\/p>\n

BALTIMORE<\/span>, Sept. 5, 2022<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Jensen Hughes<\/a><\/u>, a global leader in safety, security and risk-based engineering and consulting, announced today its acquisition of Crossfire, a market leader in New Zealand<\/span> in fire safety engineering and performance-based design engineering. The acquisition of Crossfire marks the company’s first entry into the New Zealand<\/span> market, where recent legislative changes by regulators are expected to drive growth in the fire engineering industry.<\/p>\n

Crossfire was established in Auckland<\/span> in 2012 by Director Michael Dixon<\/span> and who is now joined by fellow Directors Jeff Parkinson<\/span> and Daryn Glasgow<\/span>. “Every Crossfire team member is essential, and all 21 employees will become part of the Jensen Hughes team. During the integration process, Crossfire will continue its normal operations as a co-branded entity,” said Daryn Glasgow<\/span>. “Joining the largest fire engineering firm in the world enhances career opportunities for our employees both within New Zealand<\/span> and globally. It will also provide our clients significantly expanded expertise and services offerings,” said fellow Director Jeff Parkinson<\/span>.<\/p>\n

“The Crossfire focus on the values of respect, collaboration, integrity and to celebrate success, makes them a natural fit with Jensen Hughes. We are delighted to welcome this market-leading company with strong historical growth to our team and excited to tap into New Zealand’s<\/span> growing fire engineering market,” said Pankaj Duggal President<\/span> and COO of Jensen Hughes.<\/p>\n
