This contract supports the ICE ERO Phoenix Field Office with the provision of comprehensive detention services for two years.

The facility must have a capacity of up to 775 detainees, while also providing guards, meals, medical care, and transportation services. It must also be fully operational within a reasonable time of the contract award date. These services are required to support ERO’s mission to safely detain illegal aliens while they await trial or deportation.
