$GEGI that ARPA-E FUNDING OPPORTUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT described the need for GLID in great detail. If you were a listed as a Team Partner you were there to request funding for your Technology Development and identify Team Partners seeking their own Grant Money that can accelerate the development of your Technology > GLID.

Previous ARPA-E programs such as LOCOMOTIVES and TRANSNET have addressed route
optimization for single modes
(rail and light duty passenger vehicles, respectively). Other
government, academic, and private modeling efforts have targeted portions of the freight
system and specific modes, but none so far have addressed its deeply interconnected nature, including the challenges and opportunities the
intermodal system presents (GLID) .
. An ideal model should provide the optimum route for moving goods
across maritime, rail and road transportation systems with the lowest CO2 emissions.
(GLID)
Considering the interwoven yet fragmented nature of logistics and freight transportation, with
poor data sharing, misaligned incentives, and many different stakeholders, there is a need for
top-down modeling efforts that cross intermodal boundaries
(GLID)
These considerations lead to the twofold goals of this Exploratory Topic:
1) Support the development of models of the national intermodal freight transportation
network (i.e., moving freight by two or more modes of transportation -- e.g., trucks, trains, and
cargo ships) that enable prioritization for energy infrastructure deployment, along with data
required for the effective deployment of this optimized distribution system
2) Support the development of models of the national intermodal freight transportation system
that enable predictive and responsive optimization of modal choice, inter- or intra- modal
transfer, or routing.
GLID The overarching goal of this program is to demonstrate deployment and operational strategies
that bring freight transportation in line with national net-zero-by-2050 targets. The specific objectives of this program are to identify and quantify infrastructure and logistical developments of the intermodal freight system.
Funding recipients must produce a fully operational computational model which includes an
executable program. The recipient may assert a copyright in any distributed program subject to provisions that will
be contained in the award.

Once selected for award, each selectee must develop a Software Commercialization Plan as a
milestone during performance of their award, the contents of which are subject to the approval
of ARPA-E. Such plan must include a commitment to report to ARPA-E the software program,
algorithms or data sets that are the intended target of the award, and address how such items,
in accordance with the above criteria, will be commercialized and which Intellectual Property
rights will be asserted. https://arpa-e-foa.energy.gov/Default.aspx#FoaId521a7aa4-b255-4c3b-a211-b128d2a4a0e4

IMO this Tweet Supports the Fact that they were successful in being selected for an Award??
