Etranservices Corp., a service-disabled veteran-owned small business and SBA-certified 8(a) Program participant, was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) on December 29, 2025, for the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program. This contract, with a ceiling value of $151 billion and a performance period extending through December 28, 2035, represents a comprehensive multi-domain defense procurement initiative structured to deliver research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and modernization efforts. The contract employs full and open competition with no set-aside designations, enabling the MDA and other Department of Defense entities to issue orders across multiple contract types and security classification levels. The procurement leverages advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures to support both classified and unclassified defense programs.

The SHIELD IDIQ contract is designed to procure an integrated, multi-layered defense system capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, and allied nations across all phases of flight from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles. Work areas encompass disruptive technologies development, cybersecurity enhancements, systems modernization, and related engineering support activities conducted across multiple NAICS codes. Individual task and delivery orders will be issued as requirements emerge, with pricing structures to be determined per task order specifications and security requirements. This represents a strategic long-term investment positioning the SHIELD IDIQ as a foundational contracting mechanism to address the nation's evolving multi-layered defense requirements over the ten-year performance period.
