About this opportunity
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has awarded a sole-source contract to Amentum Services Inc. for detention and facility management services at Camp East Montana under a limited-sources justification, with an estimated total value of $2,796,540,325.26.
The justification cites 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), asserting that Amentum is the only responsible source capable of providing uninterrupted detention operations. ICE conducted extensive market research over 18 months, with specific follow-up research in January–February 2026, confirming that no other vendor possesses rights to the proprietary facility infrastructure or can transition operations without significant detainee welfare risks and unacceptable delays and costs estimated in the millions of dollars. The requirement originated from a Department of Army task order awarded July 18, 2025, and transferred to ICE for contract administration on October 1, 2025. A pre-solicitation notice was published March 11, 2026; Amentum was the only company that expressed written interest.
The contract is structured as a Firm Fixed Price agreement with a 7-month base period ($477,534,464.00), a 12-month option period ($1,114,884,768.00), a 6-month option period ($566,972,132.00), and a 6-month option period ($580,019,771.00), plus additional line items totaling $57,129,190.19. Services include secure housing, medical care, transportation, food service, facility maintenance, security support, and compliance with ICE National Detention Standards 2025. The contract is subject to Service Contract Act wage determinations and RFO Part 15 pricing requirements. Place of performance is Camp East Montana, Montana. Funding is multi-year appropriations on a to-be-determined basis.
