About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to Kaiva Arch LLC on December 29, 2025, establishing a multiple-award IDIQ with a $151 billion ceiling under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program. The vehicle uses no set-aside. The originating pre-solicitation, posted May 21, 2025 with responses due September 15, 2025, states the government intends to award to all qualifying offerors that are responsible sources, submit technically acceptable proposals, and offer fair and reasonable pricing under FAR 15.304(c)(1)(ii).
The IDIQ procures layered defense against air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight, including ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles and other advanced aerial attacks. Work areas include research and development, prototyping, disruptive technologies, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization. The scope covers classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains, and orders span different classification levels, each requiring appropriate facility clearances. The pre-solicitation identifies multiple NAICS codes across task orders.
The period of performance runs from December 29, 2025 through December 28, 2035 and covers a base ordering period plus one or more optional ordering periods. The pre-solicitation identifies no incumbents.
The only order in the source issued under this IDIQ is the SHIELD initial order, a firm-fixed-price delivery order awarded December 29, 2025 with a $500 ceiling and performance in Huntsville, Alabama.
