WOODBRIDGE, VA - Engineering Services Network, Inc. (ESN), a leading provider of advanced engineering, test and evaluation, cyber, logistics, and software solutions, announced today that it has been awarded a position on the Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA) SHIELD Multiple Award Contract (MAC). The contract vehicle carries a ceiling value of $151 billion over a 10-year period.
Engineering Services Network, Inc. (ESN) is proud to announce its selection as an awardee for the Missile Defense Agency's SHIELD contract. Under the SHIELD contract, ESN will deliver comprehensive systems engineering, information technology, logistics, and cybersecurity capabilities designed to maintain and enhance the readiness, resilience, and effectiveness of missile defense systems. ESN will leverage its extensive experience in missile defense and naval systems to support MDA across a wide array of initiatives. This award highlights ESN’s longstanding commitment in delivering best-in-class technical solutions and mission-critical support services to the nation’s defense community.
The MDA is tasked with developing an advanced, multi-domain defensive architecture capable of detecting, tracking, intercepting, and neutralizing threats to the United States homeland, deployed forces, allies, and partners. This includes defending against ballistic, hypersonic, cruise missiles, and other advanced aerial threats across all phases of flight. The SHIELD MAC IDIQ contract will support national defense objectives by enabling continuous, layered protection against air, missile, space, cyber, and hybrid threats originating from any vector—land, sea, air, space, or cyberspace.
The 10-year SHIELD MAC vehicle positions ESN to expand its Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) support capabilities while contributing to a broader spectrum of Missile Defense initiatives, including programs such as Golden Dome.
“We’re honored to have been awarded SHIELD and look forward to supporting MDA in its mission to develop a comprehensive defense system protecting the U.S. homeland,” said Raymond F. Lopez Jr., CEO & Chairman of ESN and service-disabled retired Navy veteran. “For the past 30 years, ESN has provided missile defense–related test and evaluation, technical, and logistics services that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations.
