About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to SDS International, Inc. on January 21, 2026, with a $151 billion ceiling. It is a multiple-award IDIQ with no set-aside, and the prime is a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB). The Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) contract procures a multi-domain system to detect, track, intercept, and neutralize air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats to the homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends across all phases of flight, including ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles. Work areas include research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization. The contract supports both classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains, and it lets MDA and other DoD entities issue orders under one vehicle. The period of performance runs to December 28, 2035 and consists of a base ordering period and one or more optional ordering periods. The originating pre-solicitation was posted May 21, 2025, with responses due September 15, 2025, and the government intends to award to all qualifying offerors that are responsible, submit technically acceptable proposals, and offer fair and reasonable pricing. The only order in the source is the initial SHIELD delivery order, a $500 firm-fixed-price award dated January 21, 2026, with performance in Huntsville, Alabama.
