Reditus Space, Inc.

Reditus Space, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of goods and corporate entity based in Atlanta, Georgia, operates as a prime contractor supplying aerospace and defense technologies to the Department of Defense, the Navy, and NASA, competing on full-and-open federal contracts without set-aside designations. The vendor is a small business by federal definition and has concentrated its recent activity — all four awards from 2025 — on early-stage research and development contracts and an IDV vehicle award under the Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) program.

Reditus Space's four prime awards, placed across three distinct federal customer agencies, total $367 thousand in combined potential value with $279 thousand obligated to date. The Missile Defense Agency anchors the vendor's footprint with two awards totaling $500 — the December 2025 SHIELD Multiple Award IDIQ ceiling award itself (which carries a $151 billion potential value across the ten-year contract period through 2035) and a delivery order under SHIELD valued at $500, both full-and-open acquisitions with no set-aside designation. The Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command's Naval Air Warfare Center awarded a $224,571 firm fixed-price STTR Phase I research and development contract in October 2025 for early-stage innovation, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside. NASA's Shared Services Center issued a $141,991 SBIR Phase I firm fixed-price definitive contract in September 2025 for lattice-based thermal mitigation skin material development for high-altitude sounding rockets, also designated as Total Small Business set-aside. Work is performed in Atlanta, Georgia, with the initial SHIELD delivery order performance occurring in Huntsville, Alabama.

The vendor's capability portfolio, as reflected in its research awards, centers on advanced materials engineering and thermal mitigation for aerospace applications, multi-domain defense systems design, and weapon system development and test and evaluation. One award (the SBIR Phase I) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore recompete exposure. The SHIELD IDV, running through 2035, positions Reditus Space as a potential source for future task orders in detection, tracking, interception, and neutralization of air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats, with emphasis on artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures.
