About this forecast
Immigration and Customs Enforcement is recompeting software licenses for Whooster, a Total Small Business set-aside procurement, with solicitation release estimated July 20, 2026, and award estimated September 15, 2026. The requirement covers investigative data solutions enabling law enforcement to identify non-obvious connections in investigations, including subscriber information retrieval, international telephone number searches to support transnational organized crime research, reverse phone number lookups, and social media user queries via accepted APIs. Homeland Security Investigations employees will use these licenses on a transactional basis to support cross-border investigations across nearly all HSI programmatic areas except Worksite Enforcement.
The estimated award value ranges from $500,000 to $1,000,000 for a three-year performance period from September 15, 2026, through September 14, 2029. Place of performance is throughout the United States. Primary contacts are Jyla Jeffries at jyla.jeffries@hsi.dhs.gov or (202) 741-7516; Adria Evans Turner at adria.e.evansturner@hsi.dhs.gov or (202) 741-7510; and Small Business Coordinator Samuel Thompson at Samuel.L.Thompson@ice.dhs.gov or (202) 329-0703.
The existing award being recompeted is Definitive Contract 70CMSD23C00000003, awarded to Whooster Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Buda, Texas, on September 15, 2023, valued at $1,239,000 under a Firm Fixed Price arrangement. The incumbent contract provided ICE's Office of Intelligence with Whooster licenses for access to open-source data to mitigate threats, with completion on September 14, 2026.
Forecast text
Whooster provides investigative data solutions that allow law enforcement to discover non-obvious links between the who, what, and where of investigations. Amongst its strongest capabilities, Whooster provides the ability to obtain subscriber information and international telephone numbers in support of transnational organized crime research. Users are granted the flexibility to search for phone numbers by subscriber name or perform reverse searches of phone numbers to obtain subscriber names. The vendor also searches social media users using accepted APIs provided by the social media platform. HSI employees would use Whooster licenses to obtain foreign telephone number subscriber information on a transactional basis to support cross border investigations, covering nearly all HSI programmatic areas except Worksite Enforcement. These capabilities are currently unavailable in HSI data service/systems and are essential for HSI investigations where criminal activity is conducted over foreign telephone numbers.
