Government Executive: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is looking to contract with a private sector consultant to help bring on nearly 26,000 new employees over the next several years, creating optimistic annual objectives to meet and exceed President Trump’s agenda.
The request for information comes as another Homeland Security Department component, Customs and Border Protection, recently issued a contract valued at up to $297 million in support of a hiring push of its own. CBP’s contract asks for assistance in hiring just 30 percent of the new employees identified in ICE’s RFI. The solicitations resulted from an executive order Trump signed in January calling on ICE to hire 10,000 new agents and the Border Patrol to onboard 5,000 additional employees.
