This is a Sole Source Justification for Commercial Acquisitions document (J&A-26-0371) submitted by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Office of Acquisition Management, on behalf of the Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Technical Operations (TechOps) division.

ICE proposes to procure proprietary mobile devices and related equipment from Ensurity Mobile Corp. (1645 Palm Beach Lakes Blvd, Suite 1200, West Palm Beach, FL 33401) through a new Firm-Fixed Price Purchase Order. The Contracting Officer has determined that Ensurity is the sole source capable of providing the required devices with integrated capabilities optimized for intelligence gathering and feedback in both Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside Continental United States (OCONUS) environments. These devices support HSI's criminal investigation efforts, intelligence gathering operations, evidence preservation, and officer safety initiatives. The justification emphasizes that Ensurity's devices are proprietary and designed to work with existing HSI equipment currently in use nationwide. The devices are compatible with HSI's National Tracking Program (NTP) proprietary software, which uses device-specific programming links to communicate with NTP servers. The document notes that no other vendors offer compatible devices, and alternative technology would require extensive research, development, testing, and tens of thousands of dollars in link creation costs for compatibility. A notice of intent was posted on SAM.gov on August 29, 2026, with a September 1, 2026 closing date for interested vendors to submit capability statements. Only one vendor response was received, and that vendor was determined unable to meet requirements. The Contracting Officer, Michelle E. Levine, approved the sole source justification on September 9, 2026.
