About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract to Ansys Government Initiatives, LLC for the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program on December 29, 2025. This no-set-aside contract carries a ceiling value of $151 billion over a 10-year period of performance through December 28, 2035, and utilizes full and open competition allowing all qualifying, responsible contractors to compete for task and delivery orders. The SHIELD IDIQ is designed to serve as a comprehensive contracting vehicle supporting the nation's multi-layered defense requirements across research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and modernization efforts. The contract encompasses work spanning multiple NAICS codes and classification levels, leveraging advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures to address evolving defense threats.
The scope of work under SHIELD focuses on procuring an advanced, multi-domain defense system capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends across all phases of flight from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles. Work performance is centered in Huntsville, Alabama, with the initial delivery order issued at $500 on a firm-fixed-price basis. As a leading provider of modeling and analysis software, Ansys Government Initiatives brings significant expertise through its Satellite Tool Kit platform and simulation capabilities, though the full scope of products and services across individual task orders will be competitively awarded among multiple qualified contractors as specific requirements are issued by the Missile Defense Agency and other Department of Defense entities seeking to rapidly procure SHIELD-related capabilities.
