Swan Technology Corporation

Swan Technology Corporation, a for-profit manufacturer based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, holds a prime position on the Department of Defense Missile Defense Agency's Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) multiple-award IDIQ contract with a $151 billion ceiling through December 2035, and has received two initial awards under that vehicle totaling $500 in firm fixed price, along with a separate $3.7 million Other Transaction Agreement from the Office of the Secretary of Defense for long-range one-way platform development.

Swan's federal footprint is nascent and defense-focused. The vendor has received three prime awards spanning calendar 2025, all full-and-open competitive (no set-asides), concentrated entirely within the Department of Defense customer set — the Missile Defense Agency (two awards, $500 combined potential value) and the Office of the Secretary of Defense (one award, $3.7 million). The OSD OTA for long-range one-way platform development carries an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2025, placing it in the immediate past or imminent closeout window. The SHIELD IDIQ itself, awarded December 29, 2025, serves as the parent vehicle for one initial delivery order ($500 firm fixed price, place of performance Huntsville, Alabama) and carries a 10-year performance period through December 28, 2035. The SHIELD program procures multi-domain defense capabilities encompassing research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity modernization, and related work across air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threat domains; task orders are expected to leverage artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures.

Swan holds no subcontract positions in the source and operates exclusively as a prime contractor. The combined obligated dollars across all awards equal the combined potential value ($3.7 million), indicating firm fixed pricing and full funding at award. The vendor has no sub-award footprint and is not an 8(a) or other SBA set-aside participant.
