The 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗣𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮: 𝗟𝗼𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲, hosted by OLTEK Solutions Corp., centered on the development of systems capable of transforming unstructured logistics documents into accurate and structured data for operational use. The initiative emphasized data extraction, validation, and output generation through diverse technical approaches aligned with real world applications.

The event commenced with an onsite kickoff on 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 at 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗘𝗿𝗮 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘂𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗛𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗹, followed by an intensive online build sprint from 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟭𝟬 𝘁𝗼 𝟭𝟵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲. An elimination round was conducted on March 14, requiring teams to present a concise demonstration of their workflow and document processing strategy. The competition concluded with the Final Demo Day on March 23, 2026, where teams underwent a two phase evaluation consisting of a live data processing task and a formal presentation.

Among the competing participants, 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗝𝗔𝗘, composed of 𝗘𝗶𝗷𝗮𝘆 𝗣𝗲𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗼 and 𝗝𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮, demonstrated a high level of technical proficiency and innovation. Their system, 𝗢.𝗟.𝗘.𝗔. 𝗼𝗿 𝗢𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗸 𝗟𝗼𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, achieved notable performance in data extraction efficiency. From an initial pool of 𝟮𝟭 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀, they advanced to the 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝟭𝟯 and ultimately secured a 𝗧𝗼𝗽 𝟯 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 during the Final Demo Day.

This achievement reflects not only technical competence but also the capacity to design solutions that address practical challenges in logistics data processing.

The entire CCS Department takes immense pride in your achievement. Your dedication, hard work, and excellence have truly brought honor to us all.
