About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency has awarded a Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to GBL Systems Corporation under the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program, with a ceiling value of $151 billion and a period of performance extending through December 28, 2035. This full and open competition contract, awarded December 29, 2025, utilizes no set-asides and enables the government to issue multiple delivery and task orders across the contractor base. GBL Systems Corporation, a small business federal contractor headquartered in Camarillo, California, will provide comprehensive materials, labor, equipment, and facilities necessary to support SHIELD objectives. The contractor brings substantial experience in systems engineering, software development, artificial intelligence, and mission planning systems for defense applications, with prior success managing large-scale Indefinite Delivery Vehicle contracts including an OASIS+ Small Business agreement and a $249 million Data Readiness Artificial Intelligence Development Basic Ordering Agreement with the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
The SHIELD contract encompasses research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, and modernization efforts supporting multi-domain defense capabilities across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threat domains. The procurement addresses detection, tracking, interception, and neutralization of advanced threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, and allied nations across all phases of ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missile flight. Individual task and delivery orders will be issued under various contract types and pricing mechanisms at classified and unclassified security levels, requiring appropriate facility clearances. The initial delivery order, valued at $500 and completed at the place of performance in Huntsville, Alabama, initiates the contract; subsequent orders will leverage advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures to establish layered defense capabilities across multiple functional domains.
