The Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract, awarded by the Missile Defense Agency on December 29, 2025, represents a $151 billion enterprise-wide contracting vehicle with a ten-year period of performance extending through December 28, 2035. Versar, Inc., a Washington D.C.-based project management and professional services company, has been awarded as one of multiple prime contractors under this full and open competition vehicle with no set-asides. The contract facilitates the procurement of an advanced, multi-domain defense system designed to detect, track, intercept, and neutralize threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid domains. Work areas encompass research and development, prototyping, disruptive technologies, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization efforts across multiple National Association of Industry Classification System codes and security clearance levels.

The contract is engineered to support both classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains, enabling the Missile Defense Agency and other Department of Defense entities to rapidly issue orders under a single flexible contracting mechanism. As a prime contractor, Versar will provide all necessary materials, labor, equipment, and facilities incidental to performance of individual task orders issued under the IDIQ. This procurement reflects a significant long-term federal investment in homeland defense capabilities and leverages Versar's existing experience with federal technical services, systems engineering, and program support across multiple defense and civilian agencies.
