Aqua IT, a bold, relentlessly agile, and now not-so-quietly dominant small business, just strutted into the spotlight with an “Awardable” badge from the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office's (CDAO) Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace. “Awardable” is DoD-speak for”yes, these folks actually know what they're doing, and no, we don't need a 300-page justification memo to work with them.”
