About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Nextstep Technology Inc., a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business, with a $151 billion ceiling on December 29, 2025. The vehicle is a multiple-award IDIQ with no set-aside, issued under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program. The originating pre-solicitation, posted May 21, 2025 with responses due September 15, 2025, seeks an advanced, multi-domain defense system to detect, track, intercept, and neutralize air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight. Scope includes research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization. Work supports classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains, with orders at differing classification levels requiring appropriate facility clearances. The vehicle allows MDA and other DoD entities to issue orders. Performance runs through December 28, 2035 across a base ordering period and one or more optional ordering periods. The only order under this IDIQ in the source is the SHIELD Initial Order, a firm-fixed-price delivery order with a $500 ceiling, performed in Huntsville, Alabama, with the same December 28, 2035 completion date.
