The contract, titled Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD), supports research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and disruptive technologies across air, missile, space, and cyber domains. The solicitation employed full and open competition with no set-asides; the Missile Defense Agency intended to award to all qualifying offerors submitting technically acceptable proposals at fair and reasonable pricing under FAR 15.304(c)(1)(ii).
Place of performance is Huntsville, Alabama. Work encompasses detection, tracking, interception, and neutralization of threats to the United States homeland and deployed forces, including ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles and advanced aerial attacks.

The initial task order under SHIELD, valued at five hundred dollars, was issued December 29, 2025, establishing Onyx's footprint as a prime contractor on this ten-year multi-domain defense procurement vehicle.
