Bordeaux will research cyber security performance in artificial intelligence (AI).
Bordeaux is a 36-month program organized into two phases. Security Startup Period is 3 months, Phase 1 is 18 months (Base), and Phase 2 (Option) is 18 months. This PS is soliciting proposals for both phases. Additionally, this PS is requesting proposers submit an estimate for a 12 month Transition Phase. The Transition Phase is not being solicited by this PS and only serves as a rough estimate in case the need for a Transition Phase arises at the end of the program. Multiple awards are anticipated.
