Akima Business Wins $685M DHS Contract for Immigration Detention Support Services

An Akima business has secured a potential $685.5 million contract from the Department of Homeland Security for services in support of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement center in Miami, Florida.

According to a SAM.gov award notice, Akima Infrastructure Protection will provide a range of immigration detention services at Krome Service Processing Center under the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract.

The company will support the Enforcement and Removal Operations program, which is mainly focused on the processing and enforcement of departure from the United States of detainees.

ICE requirements include detention management, transportation, mailroom, warehouse, detainee banking, detainee welfare items/other direct costs and food services for the Krome SPC, according to an earlier SAM.gov posting.

The contractor will provide contract oversight management, supervision, trained personnel,
equipment, materials, supplies, licenses, permits, certificates, pre-employment screenings,
administration and any other requirements.

The AIP team is comprised of former senior military, federal, state, and local law enforcement professionals who provide expertise and training to guard forces and security operations to support customer operations.
