You're both right. The trend with these I2O programs (and other departments) is to design a system of loosely coupled pieces that are tailored to a specific problem domain, in this case human trafficking, and then generalize in the next couple years later. By the third or fourth year you could expect to see multiple engagements with corporate industry and Gov't/DOD/LE/etc to appl these tools to their data, and thus generalize and polish the final product. The end goal is adoption of the technology and successful transition to some partner. The good programs tend to run for 3-4 years if they can justify their existence to the DARPA leadership. This is also roughly the tenure of a program manager, although a program manager may have more than one program going at a time.
