- ICE awarded a $25.1 million no-bid contract to Bi2 Technologies for iris-scanning technology, a fivefold increase from a previous contract eight months ago.
- The contract provides ICE agents with devices to authenticate identities in the field, granting access to over five million booking records without requiring FedRAMP security review or independent audits.
- Delivery of 1,570 devices is scheduled for late June, significantly expanding the agency's previous deployment of 200 units.
