Lockheed Martin's initial Crew Exploration Vehicle proposal failed to meet NASA's requirement of an evolution of the Apollo capsule concept, dubbed "Apollo on steroids".
“Lockheed had botched NASA’s initial call for “Apollo on steroids” and, rather than design an evolution of that proven concept, submitted a radical, Space Shuttle-like lifting body design.”

In March, at a preliminary design review, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) told Lockheed Martin to redesign its Crew Exploration Vehicle proposal to more closely resemble an Apollo-style capsule similar to Northrop Grumman's concept.
“NASA was unimpressed with their approach, and at a preliminary design review in March told the contractor to go back to the drawing board and produce an Apollo-style capsule more closely resembling Northrop’s concept.”

NASA cited that Lockheed Martin's Orion design used circular solar panels rather than rectangular ones as a technical reason for the award decision.
“There were some technical reasons given, like the fact that Lockheed’s design had “circular” solar panels rather than rectangular ones, but these seemed more like excuses than reasons”
Dark Mission 2010-07-22 ch19:86621-86797 administrative
