PHOENIX
FOUNDATION
for Research and Development
|
MacGyver's employer
for seasons 2-7, the Phoenix Foundation is a privately funded research and development
"think-tank" organization which offers a broad range of services to both
Government and Private sectors.
Located initially in a single high security building designed and built by Lawton Enterprises, we later
saw that the foundation had another separate facility which seemed to consist entirely of
underground laboratories. Both buildings were very hi-tech, both in design and
incorporated systems, from security right through to an apparently very accurate stock
inventory system. This high security afforded the foundation the ability to provide secure
research and development facilities to military, who enlisted the foundations help in a
number of projects.

The Phoenix Foundation was active in many areas of research and development other than
military; these included such things as law enforcement, environmental research and
protection initiatives, public assistance programs such as hearing restoration for the
deaf. They also provided other consultation services such as mediation and negotiation,
witness protection reassignment, environmental impact consultation to name but a few.
A number of foundation staff were ex-DXS agents who saw the foundation as a way of
continuing the peace process they started at the DXS. Most of them maintained their
security clearance levels which aided the foundations abilities to work around red tape
and politics to get speedy results where other agencies wouldn’t be able to. It
has been speculated that the “Western Division” seen on some of the foundations
signs would indicate that it has various satellite departments around the country and
possibly even world wide, although this was never confirmed in any episode.
