Bancroft Architects + Engineers

Bancroft Architects + Engineers is a service-disabled veteran-owned engineering firm, dedicated to pioneering the efficient design of highly technical electrical and mechanical systems.  The company was named in honor of the late Secretary of the Navy, George Bancroft, who established the United States Naval Academy in 1845.  The trademark signature that forms Bancroft’s company logo is actually the signature of George Bancroft, used with permission.

By 2009, Geo. Bancroft Engineering had earned its CVE certification as a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and had grown to 11 full-time engineers, each with sterling academic credentials that include multiple and advanced degrees from the world’s top schools.  With mechanical, electrical, civil, and aerospace engineers, Geo. Bancroft Engineering offered clients a range of engineering services, backed by a portfolio of project experience unlike any other set-aside firm in America.

Recognizing the need to broaden its scope of design expertise, Jenkins purchased one of the region’s most respected small architectural firms, Facilities Solutions Group, in 2011.  Known for their precision in designing intensely complex facilities for scientific, military, and life sciences clients around the world, Facilities Solutions Group had the added advantage of an impeccable project history that extends back into the late 1990s.  The name of the merged firm, Bancroft Architects + Engineers, reflects both the legacy of the original company with the historical connection to the Navy and Naval Academy as well as the full range of services on offer.

Now with 59 full-time architects and engineers working from regional offices around the United States, in addition to the Illinois headquarters, Bancroft continues to grow.
