Charles River Analytics assessed “Awardable” for Department of Defense work in the CDAO’s Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace for Awarion®

Charles River Analytics today announced that it has achieved “Awardable” status for the company’s Awarion® Autonomous Lookout System, which can now be found on the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office’s (CDAO) Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace. The Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is the premier offering of Tradewinds, the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) suite of tools and services designed to accelerate the procurement and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML), data, and analytics capabilities.

This designation underscores Charles River’s dedication to delivering solutions that meet the rigorous standards and strategic needs of the DoD. Our leading-edge technology is used across programs for the NIH, DoD, DHS, NASA, and the Intelligence Community.

“The Tradewinds concept—a centralized platform for showcasing AI solutions to government customers—is an excellent idea,” said Ross Eaton, Principal Scientist and Director of Marine Systems at Charles River. “I’m thrilled to see Awarion featured on Tradewinds, allowing our capabilities to reach a broader audience and deliver greater benefits to organizations. I’m excited about the new connections this will create for Awarion.”

Charles River’s Awarion Autonomous Lookout System video, accessible only by government customers on the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace, demonstrates how Awarion enhances the safety and autonomy of uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) by improving situational awareness and decision-making. Charles River Analytics was recognized among a competitive field of applicants to the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace whose solutions demonstrated innovation, scalability, and potential impact on DoD missions. Government customers interested in viewing the video solution can create a Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace account at tradewindAI.com.
