About the company
Frontera Space Inc., operating as a child entity under parent Gigenterprises, LLC, holds a prime position on the Missile Defense Agency's $151 billion Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ contract awarded January 21, 2026, and has received three additional prime awards from MDA and NASA totaling $2.1 million in combined potential value as of mid-2026. Frontera Space competes in full-and-open competition, with no set-aside designations across its current award footprint.
Frontera Space is a for-profit manufacturer based in Florence, Texas, classified under NAICS 541712 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences) and delivers advanced propulsion systems and spacecraft technologies for national defense and space applications. The company's capability portfolio centers on storable propellant thrusters for interceptors and scalable multi-domain defense systems engineering. Representative work includes a $1.989 million Missile Defense Agency Small Business Innovation Research direct-to-Phase II definitive contract (cost-plus-fixed-fee, running through June 16, 2028) for development of an advanced storable propellant thruster for interceptors, performed in Florence, Texas; a $500 firm fixed-price initial delivery order under the SHIELD IDIQ (January 21, 2026, performed in Huntsville, Alabama); and a $149,917 NASA Small Business Innovation Research Phase I purchase order (August 7, 2024, completed February 6, 2025) for a versatile, low-cost, high delta-V small spacecraft transfer stage.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted to the Missile Defense Agency, which accounts for three awards and $2 million in combined potential value (100% coverage across all awards), with NASA's Shared Services Center contributing one award of $150 thousand. The SHIELD IDIQ, while carrying a $151 billion ceiling, reflects the vehicle's multi-year, multi-tasking structure rather than Frontera Space's historical task-order volume — the vendor has placed a single $500 initial delivery order against SHIELD to date. One award (the $1.989 million MDA SBIR Phase II contract) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete exposure of $2 million in combined potential value across that window. Frontera Space operates as a 100% prime contractor with no current subcontract footprint.
