About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Absg Consulting Inc. on December 29, 2025, with a ceiling of $151 billion and an ultimate completion date of December 28, 2035. This is a multiple-award IDIQ carrying no set-aside restriction.
Place of performance includes Huntsville, Alabama, with work supporting multi-domain defense systems across research, development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization efforts. The contract will detect, track, intercept, and neutralize threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid domains throughout all phases of flight from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles, as well as advanced aerial attacks.
The Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ originated from a pre-solicitation notice posted May 21, 2025, with solicitation submissions due September 15, 2025. The MDA released a draft solicitation in late July 2025 and issued the final RFP in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025. The contract structure supports both classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains and leverages artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures. Individual task and delivery orders will utilize various contract types and span multiple NAICS codes, with resultant work potentially requiring appropriate facility clearances at different classification levels.
A $500 firm-fixed-price initial delivery order was issued under this IDIQ on December 29, 2025, with performance in Huntsville, Alabama.
