The Missile Defense Agency awarded a Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Atlas Technologies, Inc., a veteran-owned small business headquartered in North Charleston, South Carolina, with a ceiling value of $151 billion and a performance period extending through December 28, 2035. The contract, titled Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD), was awarded on December 29, 2025, utilizing full and open competition with no set-aside designations. This enterprise-wide contracting vehicle enables the Missile Defense Agency and other Department of Defense entities to issue delivery orders for advanced multi-domain defense systems, research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and cybersecurity services. The contract supports national defense objectives by procuring capabilities for detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles, leveraging advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures.

An initial delivery order valued at five hundred dollars was issued under the SHIELD IDIQ on December 29, 2025, with performance through December 28, 2035, structured as a firm fixed-price task order. The work will be performed in Huntsville, Alabama, a significant defense technology hub that serves as a focal point for missile defense initiatives. Atlas Technologies, which specializes in advanced information technology, engineering, and cybersecurity solutions for federal defense agencies, is positioned through this award to compete for multiple task orders across classified and unclassified programs requiring appropriate facility clearances. The contractor's existing expertise in systems integration, defense technology initiatives, and complex engineering services, demonstrated through prior work with Naval Information Warfare Systems Command and Naval Sea Systems Command, establishes relevant capability for supporting the comprehensive multi-layered defense requirements envisioned under the SHIELD contracting vehicle.
