Schaeffer-Moore is a UK-based arms company and secret Providence asset. They are known to possess an R&D facility in London.
Background[]
In 2019, Olivia Hall and a team from Lucas Grey's Private Militia were sent to London to clandestinely dig into the company's fiber optic cable lines in order to hack their closed circuit network and release a virus known as "Herbert" to destroy their R&D servers. Sean Rose keeps tabs on the operation via his hackers in Colorado, speculating that with their servers destroyed, the company's stocks plummet, investors cut and run, and Schaeffer-Moore enters the "garbage dump of history."
Yuki Yamazaki later notes that the company's servers were "fried", implying the team succeeded in their mission.
Trivia[]

- A scientist in World of Tomorrow describes Schaeffer-Moore as one of the more "evil" companies, a "Prince of Darkness."
- Penelope Graves comments that "the enemy controls Schaeffer-Moore. I suppose that explains a lot," while observing the whiteboard in the farmhouse.
