The Power of a Shared Vision 

The Apollo Program was not just a mission to the Moon. It was the first modern infrastructure moonshot. It unified government, industry, academia, and the public around a single purpose. It created new supply chains, new data systems, new materials, and new ways of working. It showed us that when we align around a mission, we can build what has never been built before.

AI Seed Contracts:

• Convert AFP PDFs → XBRL/FDX structured data
• Extract contract milestones (ConsensusDocs)
• Map BIM/IFC →digital‑twin attributes
• Validate identity via LEI
• Produce a federally recognized AFP schema

This becomes the reportable financial transaction required for stablecoin‑enabled payments and ADCMS compliance.

Structure

• Informal structure with Dixon Wright as Lead Mentor, a University Mentor(s) and a University Team(s) under an MOU.
• MOU can be with anyone, entity or group.  MOU does not have to be with the university.
• Revenue triggers forming a company with initial ownership 33% for mentors and 34% for the team. Can be adjusted as desired.
• University Team can by anyone, a group, a club or an entire class. No rules.

Objective

• Collectively produce a roadmap to digitizing infrastructure, stating with the application for payment data set, that all stakeholders can easily implement and that supports ongoing expansion of the XBRL taxonomy for continuously modernizing its functionality.

• Guarantee data interoperability with next generation digital currency, digital twins and all legacy and future contractor systems, platforms and standards.

• Align with the ADCMS initiative (grant not necessary) for the guidance and scope that synergizes the entire federal, state and local polices to enable next generation infrastructure by converting PDF’s in the cloud to actionable data.

• Provide University Teams with the FISTech platform to monetize their platform.

Obligation

• There are no obligations, just opportunities.
• The intent is to inspire imagination and creativity, not operate under a script. 
• The funds are provided without strings, and nothing is required to account for the funds.

Opportunity

• Engagement with peers and mentors from other campuses to broaden education, experiences and personal network.
• Contribution to industry initiatives that benefit all stakeholders.
• Potential to create a platform that is prepared to leverage the transition from PDF’s in the cloud to actional data from all sources that can be monetized.
