TL;DR: Sandia National Laboratories as mentioned in this paper was established in 1945 to provide engineering support for the United States nuclear deterrence program and developed technologies developed for that and other federal programs are coupled with Sandia's industrial management roots, resulting in a national laboratory whose systems engineering orientation is based on research and development processes modeled after those of AT&T Bell Laboratories.
Abstract: Sandia National Laboratories was established in 1945 to provide engineering support for the United States nuclear deterrence program. Technologies developed for that and other federal programs are coupled with Sandia's industrial management roots. Together, they have resulted in a national laboratory whose systems engineering orientation is based on research and development processes modeled after those of AT&T Bell Laboratories. Recent dramatic changes in international relationships have redirected Sandia's role toward the transfer of its government-sponsored technologies to commercial and industrial applications in the private sector.
