We apply our specialized skill and expertise to other missions of national interest. Decades of precision work at Y‑12 have created exceptional expertise in many areas. Through such expertise and innovative technology, Y‑12 protects both people and the environment and tackles new missions, including complementary work for other government agencies and private industry. Y‑12 has developed state-of-the-art capabilities in a broad range of areas, including: * Manufacturing and Technical Services * Nuclear Technology and Materials * Security and Consequence Management The capabilities attained at Y‑12 in performing weapons work uniquely qualify it to make critical contributions to other missions of national interest. Today Y‑12 lends its specialized expertise to other federal agencies, such as the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security, state and local governments and private-sector companies. Y‑12 projects run the gamut from supporting soldiers in combat to making our states safer to enhancing space missions. Applying our capabilities to these missions while still meeting our Department of Energy commitments ensures maximum benefit to our ultimate customer, the U.S. taxpayer.
