TV's "The Bionic Woman" worked undercover for which secret organization?

The story behind the answer

TV’s The Bionic Woman worked undercover for the secret organization OSI, the Office of Scientific Intelligence. In the series, Jaime Sommers became a highly capable operative after receiving bionic implants, and Oscar Goldman supervised her assignments through the OSI. The fictional agency handled missions involving espionage, national security, advanced technology, and threats to the United States.

Jaime was introduced in a two-part 1975 storyline on The Six Million Dollar Man before receiving her own series, which premiered in 1976. Her bionic abilities included extraordinary strength, speed, hearing, and vision, but the show balanced action with her efforts to maintain an ordinary life. That contrast made undercover work central to the character rather than merely a background detail.

The organization is sometimes expanded differently in secondary material, including “Office of Strategic Intelligence,” but “Office of Scientific Intelligence” is the standard name associated with the television series. OSI also connects The Bionic Woman to The Six Million Dollar Man, since Steve Austin worked for the same fictional agency.
