Description
COLUMBIA SOFTWARE ENHANCEMENTS
Score Rationale
No AI/ML techniques or systems are named in the award description; 'software enhancements' is generic modernization language with no evidence of algorithmic work. The problem is entirely unarticulated—only a system name (COLUMBIA) is provided with no operational context or success criteria. JHU APL is an FFRDC, not an AI-native company, and this contract reads as legacy systems maintenance rather than AI-driven capability development.
