About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency has awarded a $151 billion multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contract to Arctos Technology Solutions, LLC (doing business as UTC) and other qualifying contractors for the Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program. This 10-year contract, effective December 29, 2025, through December 28, 2035, represents a comprehensive procurement vehicle designed to support advanced, multi-domain defense capabilities protecting the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and partners. The SHIELD IDIQ will support 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. Work will encompass detection, tracking, interception, and neutralization of threats from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles throughout all phases of flight, leveraging advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures. The contract utilizes full and open competition with no set-asides, allowing all responsible, qualified contractors to compete for multiple task orders under the IDIQ structure.
An initial delivery order valued at $500 (firm fixed price) was issued to Arctos Technology Solutions on December 29, 2025, for the SHIELD initial order, with performance location in Huntsville, Alabama, and completion targeted for December 28, 2035. This inaugural task order represents the first of what is anticipated to be numerous delivery orders issued to multiple awardees under the contract vehicle throughout its 10-year performance period. Arctos Technology Solutions brings substantial relevant experience to this engagement, with demonstrated expertise in aerospace, defense, digital solutions, systems engineering, advanced materials, propulsion technologies, computational modeling, and risk assessment through prior significant prime contract awards from the Department of Defense, Air Force Research Laboratory, and other federal defense agencies. The contractor's existing portfolio of federal IDIQs, including the $46 billion Eglin Wide Agile Acquisition Contract and the $97 million Aerospace Materials Processing, Performance and Characterization program with the Air Force Research Laboratory, positions the company to effectively compete for and execute specialized technical task orders under the SHIELD contract structure.
