About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This federal contract award, valued at $4,866,719.00, was issued by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to BAE Systems Information And Electronic Systems Integration Inc., a subsidiary of BAE Systems PLC. The contract supports DARPA's Competency-Aware Machine Learning (CAML) program, which aims to improve human-machine teaming capabilities and task synergies expected of autonomous systems. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, indicating open competition.

The CAML program seeks to develop autonomous systems that can self-assess their task competency and strategy, and express this in a human-understandable form. This capability is intended to transform autonomous systems from tools into trusted, collaborative partners. BAE Systems' work under the contract will contribute to this goal by enabling machines to control their behaviors to match user expectations and allow human operators to quickly and accurately gain insight into a system's competence in complex, time-critical, dynamic environments.

The prime contractor, BAE Systems, has subcontracted a portion of the work to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), a leading research university. This collaboration leverages MIT's expertise in advanced scientific research and technological development across various domains, including those relevant to the CAML program's objectives.
