My guess is that you have a shared database. You've removed a user
from the system. When BCM asks Windows to look up the name of user
'5c54ec07-dc80-4f38-ae8b-cf4465ed6938', Windows no longer knows who
that user is, so there's no name to display in the AssignedTo field.

I had guessed this to be the situation. Question is, How do I remedy the
situation?

If the data is already in your database, you could try changing the
AssignedTo value to the GUID of a valid user, by running SQL directly
against the database with sqlcmd or sql management studio.

Otherwise, you could use a text editor to make the same change in your
BCM file and reimport the file.
