The Missile Defense Agency has awarded a $151 billion multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract to WB Brawley Co and other qualifying contractors for the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program. This 10-year contract, with an award date of December 29, 2025 and ultimate completion date of December 28, 2035, will procure an advanced, multi-domain defense system designed to detect, track, intercept, and neutralize threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends. The contract encompasses research and development, prototyping, disruptive technologies, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization efforts across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threat domains, including protection against ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles throughout all phases of flight.

The SHIELD contract utilizes full and open competition with no set-asides and is structured to support both classified and unclassified programs across multiple security domains, leveraging advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures. Individual task and delivery orders will utilize various contract types and pricing mechanisms across multiple North American Industry Classification System codes, with orders potentially issued at different classification levels requiring appropriate facility clearances. WB Brawley Co, a North Carolina-based small business with demonstrated experience in communications infrastructure and construction services for military installations, received an initial delivery order valued at five hundred dollars for work to be performed in Huntsville, Alabama. The contract vehicle is designed to enable rapid order issuance and provide a flexible contracting mechanism for the Missile Defense Agency and other Department of Defense entities to fulfill the nation's multi-layered defense requirements.
