We’re excited to share that AI Squared has been designated “Awardable” on the Department of Defense’s (DoD) Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace – a premier hub for accelerating the procurement and adoption of AI/ML, data, and analytics solutions across the DoD. As the fiscal year ends, this is a prime moment to leverage Tradewinds to drive AI Adoption, maximize budgets, and advance mission success within agencies.
This recognition validates our mission to bridge the last mile of AI by seamlessly integrating data science outputs into mission and business applications, modernizing legacy systems, driving adoption, and ensuring AI delivers measurable impact at mission speed.
What is the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace?
The Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is the DoD’s digital repository of awardable solutions, where technologies that have undergone rigorous competitive assessments are made readily available for procurement. Each solution in the Marketplace has been evaluated against DoD requirements using complex scoring rubrics.
Government customers can browse and acquire solutions directly from the Marketplace, ensuring faster access to mission-ready innovation. By being assessed “Awardable,” AI Squared has joined an elite set of solutions that DoD organizations can procure confidently, knowing they meet the highest standards of impact, scalability, and security.

Why is this important for Department of Defense(DoD)
In Defense, it’s not enough to build an AI prototype that works in a lab. What truly matters is delivering operational AI capabilities that can be trusted in the field. Too often, promising models stall in experimentation because they can’t integrate into existing systems or workflows. AI Squared solves this challenge by:
- Integrating any AI/ML model directly into mission applications, without requiring costly or time-consuming reengineering.
- Delivering real-time insights to mission operators with embedded analytics and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) capabilities tailored for defense contexts.
- Creating secure, flexible deployments on-premises or in Virtual Private Cloud, ensuring mission data stays protected.
- Establishing feedback loops between operators and data teams to ensure AI adoption continuously improves over time.
This enables federal missions to move projects from prototype to production quickly, ensuring AI investments drive real-world outcomes instead of becoming sunk costs.
What This Means for Department of Defense(DoD) Missions
Becoming “Awardable” is more than a procurement designation, it represents trust. For AI Squared, it means DoD leaders can:
- Procure rapidly through Tradewinds or existing contract vehicles, including GSA MAS-IT and SBIR Phase III.
- Adopt AI capabilities 5X faster, reducing deployment time from months to weeks.
- Empower operators with AI inside the tools they already use, reducing swivel-chairing and increasing mission efficiency.
Mission owners can now access a proven pathway to operationalizing AI at scale.
Looking Ahead
We are honored to partner with the Department of Defense to accelerate their AI journey. Being “Awardable” on the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is a milestone, but it’s just the beginning.
AI Squared remains committed to ensuring that every AI investment translates into faster decisions, stronger missions, and real impact for the mission operators.
