About this opportunity
Immigration and Customs Enforcement awarded a sole-source contract to Auterion Government Solutions Inc. for $1,235,350 on August 28, 2026, to procure a small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) and operational support.
The contract is firm-fixed-price with a base period of six months. The award was made under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a) authority. Funding derives from Asset Forfeiture Direct Operations & Support Funds for FY 2026. The sUAS will support Homeland Security Investigations Technical Operations with mission-ready aviation capability for criminal investigations, tactical surveillance, infrastructure monitoring, search operations, and response to emerging threats, with interoperability and data sharing across DHS and interagency partners.
Market research conducted January through August 2026 determined Auterion is the only responsible source meeting HSI requirements. A sources-sought notice posted on SAM.gov on August 4, 2026 (closed August 10) yielded one response deemed technically unable to fulfill the need. Evaluated alternatives failed to meet operational, transportation, flight endurance, supply chain, safety, or cost requirements and would impose significant integration burdens and financial or logistical costs. The Contracting Officer applied FAR Subpart 15.404-1 methodologies to establish fair and reasonable pricing. ICE plans future competitive procurements as the market matures and additional vendors demonstrate integrated solutions.
