V8Y is deemed awardable on P1 Marketplace and TSM.
Two Department of Defense innovation marketplaces have assessed the V8Y Platform as awardable — meaning government buyers can select, negotiate, and award the solution through streamlined pathways without re-running full competition for the authorities those marketplaces cover.
TRL 5
V8Y Platform is deemed awardable on both Platform One Solutions Marketplace (P1SM) and Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace (TSM).
What this means
Awardable is not a logo — it is a procurement fact
In DoD marketplace programs, a solution rated awardable has already been assessed through competitive procedures that satisfy federal competition requirements for the authorities those marketplaces support. Once a solution is in the marketplace as awardable, government organizations can search, review, contact the vendor, negotiate, and award — typically without a fresh full competition or a Justification and Approval (J&A) under FAR Part 6 for those covered authorities.
That is why this status matters for V8Y: it shortens the path from evaluation to contract for buyers who already know they need boundary-layer visibility across a technology estate.
We are deemed awardable for the V8Y Platform from both P1 Marketplace and TSM.
P1 Marketplace
What Platform One Solutions Marketplace (P1SM) is
Platform One Solutions Marketplace (P1SM) — often called P1 Marketplace — is a DoD digital marketplace of post-competition pitch videos for hardware, software, and service solutions that support secure, continuous software delivery and related mission needs.
Vendors submit short video pitches. Assessors evaluate them against published criteria. Solutions that pass are listed as awardable so DoD organizations can discover and procure them through rapid acquisition pathways aligned to authorities such as 10 USC 4021, 10 USC 4022, 10 USC 3458, FAR/DFARS Part 35, and DFARS Subpart 212.70 (as stated by P1SM program materials).
In plain terms: P1SM is how Platform One helps government buyers find validated solutions that are already past the competitive assessment step for those pathways.
V8Y Platform has been deemed awardable on Platform One Solutions Marketplace (P1SM).
TSM
What Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace (TSM) is
Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace (TSM) is the DoD Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO) marketplace — managed with Applied Research Institute (ARI) — for AI/ML, digital, and data hardware, software, and services.
Like P1SM, vendors submit concise video pitches on a recurring open call. Expert panels assess submissions. Solutions rated awardable enter the marketplace, where government customers can search, view, and initiate procurement through streamlined pathways designed for digital and AI-era capability gaps.
TSM is built to move validated AI, data, and digital solutions from discovery to award faster than traditional multi-year source selections — while still satisfying competition requirements for the authorities the program covers.

Both
Why both marketplaces matter for V8Y
P1SM and TSM serve overlapping but distinct buyer communities: Platform One’s software-delivery and DevSecOps-adjacent ecosystem, and CDAO’s AI/digital/data acquisition community. Being awardable on both means V8Y is discoverable in two of the DoD’s primary post-competition marketplaces for modern technology solutions.
We are deemed awardable for the V8Y Platform from both P1 Marketplace and TSM.

Maturity
Technology readiness: TRL 5
V8Y Platform is at Technology Readiness Level 5 (TRL 5) — component and/or breadboard validation in a relevant environment. The working system runs the full loop today — observe, predict, repair or guide, route, verify, learn — on live signals, deployed across cloud and on-premises environments.
We are at TRL 5, not TRL 4. That distinction matters for evaluators comparing prototype maturity: TRL 5 reflects validation in a relevant environment, beyond laboratory breadboard demonstration alone.
The research foundation underneath — six years of fieldwork, 22,000+ mapped signals, 10,000 validated through controlled testing — is documented on The Research.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does “deemed awardable” mean?
It means assessors for that marketplace rated the V8Y Platform submission as awardable. For the authorities those marketplaces cover, government buyers can generally proceed toward award without re-running the full competitive assessment step that the marketplace already satisfied — subject to normal pre-award diligence (market research documentation, funds, fair and reasonable price, SAM registration, and local policy).
What is P1 Marketplace?
Platform One Solutions Marketplace (P1SM) is a DoD marketplace of assessed, post-competition solution pitches so buyers can discover and procure modern hardware, software, and services supporting secure continuous delivery and related needs.
What is TSM?
Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace (TSM) is the CDAO marketplace for AI/ML, digital, and data solutions. Awardable pitches are visible to government customers for streamlined engagement and procurement pathways.
What TRL is V8Y at?
V8Y Platform is at TRL 5 (not TRL 4): validation in a relevant environment, with a working system running the full observe–predict–remediate–route–verify–learn loop on live signals.
