About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency has awarded Battelle Memorial Institute a $151 billion Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) vehicle with a period of performance extending through December 28, 2035. This full and open competition contract, awarded without set-asides, establishes a flexible contracting mechanism enabling the MDA and other Department of Defense entities to issue task orders for research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization efforts. The procurement supports development of an advanced, multi-domain defense system capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight, including ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missile defense. Battelle is responsible for providing all necessary materials, labor, equipment, and facilities required to perform work under individual delivery orders issued against this IDIQ vehicle.
The contract structure accommodates both classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains and utilizes various contract types across multiple NAICS codes, with individual task orders potentially requiring facility clearances appropriate to their classification levels. Work will leverage advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures to support national defense objectives protecting the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends. The initial task order awarded to Battelle, effective December 29, 2025, has a ceiling value of five hundred dollars and is performed on a Firm Fixed Price basis at the place of performance in Huntsville, Alabama. As a large nonprofit research and development organization with extensive federal contracting experience and a robust portfolio of defense-related contracts, Battelle possesses demonstrated capabilities across the technical domains required to support this multi-year, multi-billion-dollar homeland defense initiative.
