ORBIS Inc.

ORBIS is honored to be selected to support Missile Defense Agency’s “SHIELD” Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense IDIQ contract. With a contract ceiling of $150 billion, this multiple award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract allows MDA and other Department of Defense entities to rapidly compete orders under one flexible enterprise vehicle.

SHIELD covers a broad range of work and enables the rapid delivery of innovative capabilities to the warfighter with increased speed and agility, leveraging AI / ML artificial enabled applications and maximizing use of digital engineering, open systems architectures, model-based systems engineering, and agile processes in the acquisition, development, and sustainment of these capabilities.

Of the award, ORBIS President, Charlie Grabenstein, “The SHEILD IDIQ is so important to our National Security and Orbis is honored to be selected for this generational opportunity. As a Veteran Owned business, we’re proud to provide our engineering, technical, and consulting expertise and 25 years’ experience to MDA and the Department of War as we build out our Nation’s integrated air and missile defenses (IAMD) and defend our homeland and friends and allies.

This Thanksgiving we are grateful for our dedicated team and families who support them. Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday!

25 Years of Growth, Culture and Community

As we celebrate our 25th anniversary, we're recognizing the people, places, and moments that have shaped our culture into what it is today.

One standout example comes from our Yorktown office. In late 2017, the team began organizing regular after-hours activities to strengthen connections beyond the workplace. After trying bowling and trivia leagues, they found their stride in 2018 with beach volleyball, and it quickly became a tradition.

For five seasons, the Yorktown team played at a local ocean club, enjoying the unique setting and the chance to unwind together. The games became more than just a weekly activity. They were a gathering point for colleagues, friends, and families. Coworkers came out to cheer from the sidelines, and the venue hosted several office holiday celebrations.

These moments reflect something deeper than team bonding. They represent the kind of culture that drives long-term success: one that prioritizes health and wellbeing first, strengthens connections with the people we work alongside, and creates the foundation for doing our best work together. It's this commitment to our people that has always set ORBIS apart.

As we look ahead to the next 25 years, we're inspired by stories like these. They remind us that while our business continues to evolve, our commitment to building strong, healthy, connected teams remains at the heart of everything we do.
