Site-Directed Research and Development Fiscal Year 2013 Annual Report
- Nevada Test Site/National Security Technologies, LLC, North Las Vegas, NV (United States); et al.
A hallmark of high-performance research and development is sustained achievement that endures. R&D organizations and laboratories have changed the course of technology and the world, and their innovations impact us for generations. At the center of the Nevada National Security Site’s (NNSS) science, technology, and engineering (ST&E) mission is the Site-Directed Research and Development Program (SDRD), which, through sustained achievement, has had an indelible impact on our mission and altered some of our most important work for the foreseeable future. The innovations created in the SDRD program have a remarkably high return on investment, and the SDRD program has helped raise the overall emphasis on the ST&E mission. In recent years the technology mission and its importance to the long-term vitality of the NNSS has been a prominent focus of National Security Technologies, LLC (NSTec). For example, NSTec created the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) position and filled it in August 2013 (see Foreword). SDRD was functionally realigned to report to the CTO concurrent with this change in leadership structure. A new corporate systems–based approach to strategic applied science and technology is starting to materialize, and expectations are that this shift of attention to technology innovation will bring about powerful outcomes for our mission and customers.
