SUMMARY:Webinar: How to Compete for SHIELD – MDA’s $151B Homeland Defense Contract
DESCRIPTION:The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) just released the draft RFP for SHIELD—a $151 billion multiple award IDIQ designed to deliver layered defense capabilities across every domain: air\, space\, land\, sea\, cyber\, and hybrid. Join OST Global Solutions CEO David Huff for a free\, live webinar that breaks down the draft RFP\, explains what it means to be a “qualifying offeror\,” and outlines how to submit a compliant proposal that positions your company for long-term task order success. \nRegister Today \nWhy SHIELD Matters \nSHIELD (Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense) is expected to serve as the primary contracting vehicle for the Pentagon’s Golden Dome initiative—a next-generation missile defense architecture focused on national protection. With a 10-year ordering period and over 40 eligible NAICS codes\, SHIELD gives awardees exclusive access to a steady stream of classified and unclassified task orders tied to one of the DoD’s top modernization priorities. \nWhy this opportunity is different: \n\nAll qualifying offerors will be awarded—this is not a best-value competition\nOnly a short\, template-based corporate experience volume is required (6 pages)\nNo cost proposal\, no staffing plan\, no narrative past performance\nSecurity requirements (FCLs\, DD254s) are determined at the task order level\nFirst task order is a $500 award for attending a virtual kickoff and submitting a capability statement\n\nWhether you’re a prime with cleared personnel or a small business building your first teaming strategy\, SHIELD is a historic opportunity to access DoD’s next wave of work. \nWhat You’ll Learn in This Webinar \nDavid Huff will walk you through the SHIELD draft RFP and what it takes to get awarded. Topics will include: \n\nWhat it means to be a “qualifying offeror”\nA line-by-line breakdown of Volume I and Volume II requirements\nThe importance of compliant corporate experience documentation (Attachment L-03)\nHow the lack of cost and technical narrative changes your proposal strategy\nWhat to expect from the first task order and post-award virtual kickoff\nHow SHIELD supports Golden Dome—and why you want to be positioned early\nHow OST can support your submission\, teaming\, and readiness for classified TOs\n\nRegister Today \nAbout the Speaker \nDavid Huff is CEO of OST Global Solutions and a nationally recognized expert in federal business development and proposal strategy. He has led more than 400 multimillion- and multibillion-dollar federal proposals\, helping clients win over $26 billion in government contracts. His insights have helped firms successfully position for large IDIQs and GWACs\, including OASIS+\, CIO-SP4\, and ASTRO.

SUMMARY:Webinar: CMMC Level 2 Without Breaking the Bank
