Section C - Description/Specifications/Statement of Work

1.0 Introduction

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) requires an advanced, multi-domain defense system capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing threats to the United States homeland, its deployed forces, allies, and friends across all phases of flight by ballistic, hypersonic, cruise missile, and other advanced aerial attacks. This will be delivered through a multiple award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract (MAC IDIQ).

The MDA MAC IDIQ will support national defense objectives by ensuring continuous, layered protection against air, missiles, space, cyber, and hybrid threats originating from any vector - land, sea, air, space, or cyberspace. This effort supports commercial and non-commercial services and commodities of both classified and unclassified efforts on multiple security domains. Only DoD departments and agencies may be authorized to use the IDIQ if their requirement is for the same or similar supplies or services.

This contract will provide rapid delivery of innovative capabilities to the warfighter, leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning-enabled applications where pertinent, and maximizing use of digital engineering, open systems architectures, model-based systems engineering, and agile processes in the acquisition, development, fielding and sustainment of these capabilities.

Information technology requirements that are predominantly for the common Government-wide categories defined by the Category Management Leadership Council led by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) shall not be purchased under this contract. Information technology requirements that are ancillary to the scope areas provided in paragraph 2 are acceptable to be purchased under this contract.

SHIELD ORDERING PROCEDURES

SHIELD H-01 Ordering Procedures (July 2025)

a. Authorized Ordering Activities Duly warranted Department of Defense (DoD) Contracting Officers in good standing with the appropriate contracting authority are authorized to issue solicitations and award orders under this contract. For the purpose of this contract, these individuals are referred to as Ordering Contracting Officers (OCOs). The OCOs, as necessary, may conduct pre-solicitation and/or pre-proposal conferences and/or one-on-ones to determine competitive environment and/or request industry feedback.

b. Ordering A Missile Defense Agency Contracting Officer shall be assigned to manage the indefinite-delivery contract. However, OCOs are responsible for the placement and administration of all orders.

c. Responsiveness The contract holder should respond to all OCO requests submitted that contain a control number issued by the MDA PMO. Responses will vary based on the nature of a request and a response of "No Bid" is acceptable. However, the contract holder should include rationale with their "No Bid" that will assist the OCO with understanding the reason for the response.

d. Adherence to Ordering Procedures If the contract holder receives a request that does not contain a control number as provided in H-01 (c) then the contract holder may respond to the inquiry but should also notify the MDA Program Office of the deviation in procedures.

(End of Clause)

SHIELD H-02 On-Ramp (July 2025) All interested parties are placed on notice that after award the Government may at its discretion from time to time reopen the competition under this solicitation if it is in the Government's best interest to increase the pool of competition among the IDIQ contract holders.

When/if the Government decides to reopen the solicitation, an announcement will be posted via SAM.gov allowing new offerors the opportunity to compete for an IDIQ contract. The award decision for the on-ramp solicitation will be based upon the same evaluation factors as the original solicitation. Any existing IDIQ contract holders will not re-compete for an IDIQ contract, as this is unnecessary. Subsequent to a reopened competition, existing and new IDIQ contract holders can compete for future task or delivery orders as set forth in the terms and conditions of the contract. The contract ordering period for any firm selected in accordance with the solicitation's On-ramp procedures will run concurrent with the existing IDIQ ordering period. The award of any new firm(s) does not increase the maximum value of the IDIQ.

(End of Clause)

SHIELD H-03 Off-Ramp (July 2025) If at any point during the period of performance the contractor decides that it no longer wishes to participate in the contract, then the contractor may submit a request to the Government requesting bi-lateral closeout of their contract. If the Government accepts the contractor's request, a bilateral modification will be executed to remove the contract holder from the IDIQ contract vehicle.

There may also be other circumstances that lead to off ramp of a contract holder. The Government will contact contract holders to discuss off ramping if contract holders are 1) non- responsive to modifications made at the IDIQ contract level, or 2) where 12 consecutive months have elapsed without the offeror submitting a proposal or quote that is compliant with the solicitation instructions.

If a contractor is off ramped from the IDIQ while it is under contract to perform an order(s), the contractor will be required to continue to perform under the terms of the specific order(s).

(End of Clause)
