Vault Tec Vault Program

The **Vault-Tec Vault Program**, commissioned by the United States government to build a network of bunkers to spare the U.S population in the case of nuclear holocaust.

## History

America's preeminent nuclear defense corporation became a well known company when it acquired and re-branded Morgantown's local college as Vault-Tec University, with some of their top executives and scientists either teaching or graduating from there. This investment in cadre would pay off in the early 2050s: When the Euro-Middle Eastern War, the New Plague, and the collapse of the United Nations resulted in a nationwide scare, the government set Project Safehouse in motion in 2054.

This massive national defense endeavor is intended to create shelters that would protect the population in the event of a nuclear war. Vault-Tec is prepared for such an eventuality. Following the success of its demonstration Vault, built near their headquarters in Los Angeles, the company won the bid for the construction of the shelters. Vault-Tec is able to create a number of cutting edge technologies and develop shelters that legitimately protected the inhabitants.

Some of these miracles manifested as breakthroughs in construction technology, allowing for these gargantuan bunkers to be constructed at a rapid pace. Most were completed by 2063, although the construction of several Vaults was delayed, particularly Vault 13 and the network surrounding Washington, D.C. Some Vault construction was delayed due to work stoppage. Despite these problems, Vault-Tec began advertising Vaults in newly annexed Canada, though these were in the early stages of completion.

Regardless of a nuclear war, Vault-Tec has its own plans for Vaults: to use them as test environments to create technologies that could be used to redefine society. For this purpose, an entire Vault is set aside to act as proving grounds intended to test a variety of prototype devices with the aim of rolling them out through to the rest of the Vaults.

## Corporate model

The primary focus of Vault-Tec is the development of a line of nuclear war defense installations and the technology necessary for their construction. Although their most recognizable product remains the venerable Vault, the company has also developed cheaper alternatives, like the Series 1000 shelter, and contracted its technologies out to other entities requiring a reliable, proven pipeline for constructing subterranean bunkers. Vault-Tec's technology is reliable and of very high quality, and a testament to the corporation's capabilities at its best. Its proprietary inventions, designed to improve the quality of life of a Vault dweller, include SimuSun Lighting, Floorsuck Autocleaner Systems, Culinator 3000 Kitchen Systems, Entertainotron Rooms and Eye-On-You surveillance cameras.

Apart from heavy construction and technologies necessary for sustaining a population underground, Vault-Tec has also developed nuclear reactors (eg. Vault Star), medical devices such as the organ extractor, motion sensors based on Wattz Electronics' designs, and even the SimTek 5000 virtual reality simulation suite for accustoming Vault dwellers with the outside and the Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System for facing any threats.

Future-Tec is a division of the company tasked with developing cutting edge technologies to allow Vault dwellers to brave the horrors of a post-nuclear world. Their crown achievement is the G.E.C.K.

### Products

With a large exposition at the Museum of Technology in the capital, designed to promote their shelters and explain their functionality, while promotional tours and awarding of prizes like the Pressed Vault Suit Award are also used to promote the company. An attraction at Nuka-World also highlighted an idealistic public image of what Vaults could do for mankind off-world. A massive merchandise line developed to promote Vaults and the company are also a part of their efforts and includes baseball caps, lunchboxes, T-shirts, leather bomber jackets, golf tees, drink cozys, Vault-Tec bobbleheads (and the matching Bobblehead collector's stand), as well as Limited Edition snow globes showcasing landmarks around the nation

### Employee Relations

When you become an employees you will receive the Vault-Tec employee handbook, a monumental publication which outlines everything about the company and its procedures, down to bathroom breaks. You will also have free access to any Vaults and a good pay. When you are working for Vault-Tec, remember countless people and your country are counting on you. You are the public face of Vault-Tec.

### Drills

Vault-Tec is authorized to carry out drills for citizens selected for inclusion in the Vaults and operates its own alert system. Beta alert drills were carried out at regular intervals (sometimes as much as five a week) to test admission protocols and to prepare the future Vault dwellers for an orderly admission into the Vault, in case of an Alpha Alert.
