Indefinite Delivery Contract HQ085926DG017

The Missile Defense Agency awarded a Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract to JRC Integrated Systems, LLC on December 29, 2025, with a ceiling value of $151 billion and a performance period extending through December 28, 2035. This contract, known as the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) IDIQ, procures an advanced, multi-domain defense system capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and friends. The contract supports comprehensive national defense objectives by providing continuous, layered protection against air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight, including threats from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles, as well as other advanced aerial attacks. Performance will occur primarily in Huntsville, Alabama, with work conducted under full and open competition allowing multiple qualifying contractors to compete for task orders.

The scope of work encompasses research and development, prototyping, disruptive technologies, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity, and modernization efforts. The contract vehicle 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. JRC Integrated Systems, a minority-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned small business, will provide all necessary materials, labor, equipment, and facilities required for contract performance. As of the award date, an initial delivery order valued at $500 (Firm Fixed Price) was issued under the SHIELD program. The contract structure allows the Missile Defense Agency and other Department of Defense entities to rapidly issue task and delivery orders utilizing various contract types across multiple North American Industry Classification System codes, with individual orders potentially issued at different classification levels requiring appropriate facility clearances.
