Description
THIS CONTRACT SHALL PROVIDE MODELING, ANALYSIS, AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING SUPPORT TO THE SSC/SZWN NEXT-GEN PROGRAMS BRANCH.
Score Rationale
The award description contains zero mention of AI, ML, or any algorithmic technique—only generic 'modeling, analysis, and systems engineering support.' This is classic FFRDC consulting language with no deliverable specificity. JHU APL is a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (large prime equivalent), making it a legacy institutional player, not an AI-native startup, despite university affiliation.
