About Telesis Research LLC
Telesis Research LLC, a Nashville-based minority-owned, veteran-owned, and self-certified small disadvantaged business, holds a $151 billion multiple-award indefinite delivery contract from the Missile Defense Agency (SHIELD program) as a full-and-open prime contractor. The vendor operates as a limited liability partnership and competes without set-asides in the full-and-open space. Telesis has a named subsidiary, Aurex-Telesis Solutions LLC, which carries the same minority-owned, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned business designations and is structured as a small business joint venture.
The award portfolio is nascent: three awards across 2025, with two prime positions (an IDIQ and one initial delivery order) and one subcontract role. The SHIELD IDIQ, awarded December 29, 2025, carries a $151 billion ceiling through December 28, 2035 and encompasses research and development, prototyping, systems engineering, weapon design, production, test and evaluation, cybersecurity modernization, and protection against air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats across all phases of flight from ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles. The contract scope includes emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital engineering, and open systems architectures, with work spanning both classified and unclassified defense programs. The initial task order under this IDIQ, issued December 29, 2025, is valued at $500 on a firm fixed price basis and supports SHIELD initial activities with place of performance in Huntsville, Alabama.
All three awards in the source are concentrated with the DOD Missile Defense Agency (100% of award count and combined potential value). Category concentration tracks to Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (NAICS) and National Defense R&D Services (PSC). In its subcontractor capacity, Telesis delivers research and development and other direct costs support to Modern Technology Solutions Inc. on a February 2025 MDA DEDAIM task order sub-award. Across both prime and sub roles, Telesis's capability portfolio centers on defense systems integration, missile defense research and development, and advanced weapons system engineering supporting the Missile Defense Agency's homeland and allied defense mission.
