INTENSIVE SUPERVISION APPEARANCE PROGRAM II (lSAP II)
STATEMENT OF WORK
1

BACKGROUND

The Alternatives to Detention (ATD) Unit of the Office of Detention and Removal
Operations (ORO) within the U.S. Department of Romeland Security's (DRS)
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) component is responsible for the
development and implementation of programs that provide cost-effective alternatives to
secure detention as a means of supervising the non-detained population These
alternatives to secure detention are designed to improve rates of appearance at
immigration interviews and hearings by aliens released from secure detention and
otherwise part of the non-detained population (i.e. those who have never been detained),
and also intended to improve compliance with final orders issued by immigration judges
by non-detained aliens.
Approximately 32,000 persons are held in secure detention by DRO each day. This
population includes aliens in the United States who are in violation of the Immigration
and Nationality Act (INA) who pose a threat to community safety, national security,
and/or may be a flight risk, in addition to those aliens required to be detained under
specific provisions of the INA.
Limited detention capacity and an increasing detainee population coupled with the need
to lower alien absconder rates have sparked national efforts over the past several years to
integrate into DRO's general practices the use of various alternatives to detention for
aliens who do not require mandatory detention in accordance with the INA. Alternatives
to detention offer the prospect of a considerable cost savings over secure detention for
eligible aliens.
The ATD Unit currently manages two contract programs: the Intensive Supervision
Appearance Program (ISAP) and the Enhanced Supervision/Reporting (ESR) Program.
The current ISAP contract expires on September 20, 2009. This statement of work
(SOW) describes the government's requirements for the follow-on contract, ISAP II.
ISAP is a core community-based supervision and in-person reporting program. Activities
of aliens released from ICE custody in the ISAP program are monitored by case
specialists (i.e. contractors). Aliens participating in this release program must participate
in or comply with a variety of activities and reporting requirements designed to
successfully reintegrate the alien into his or her community while awaiting removal (i.e.
travel to their country of origin). Requirements include home and local office visits,
employment verification, and curfews. To ensure successful completion of the program,
ISAP relies on electronic GPS monitoring devices, telephonic reporting and unannounced

home visits. Participants must also report to their assigned ISAP office regularly for faceto-face interviews.
Current operational ISAP and ESR offices are listed in Appendix B, Table B-1.
Depending on available funding during the execution of the ISAP II contract, DRO
intends to expand its ISAP coverage to the additional DRO Field Office and Sub-Office
locations under the ISAP II contract as described in Appendix B, Table B-2, both through
establishment of new contractor facilities and assignment of contractor personnel
working on-site at government facilities.

APPENDIX D: REQUIRED SECURITY CLAUSE
SENSITIVE /UNCLASSIFED CONTRACTS
SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
a.
GENERAL
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has determined that performance of the
tasks as described in Contract HSCECR-09-D-00002 requires that the Contractor,
subcontractor{s), vendor{s), etc. (herein known as Contractor) have access to sensitive
DRS information, and that the Contractor will adhere to the following.
b. SUITABILITY DETERMINATION.
DHS shall have and exercise full control over granting, denying, withholding or
terminating unescorted government facility and/or sensitive Government information
access for Contractor employees, based upon the results of a background investigation.
DHS may, as it deems appropriate, authorize and make a favorable entry on duty (BOD)
decision based on preliminary security checks. The favorable EOD decision would allow
the employees to commence work temporarily prior to the completion of the full
investigation. The granting of a favorable EOD decision shall not be considered as
assurance that a full employment suitability authorization will follow as a result thereof.
The granting of a favorable EOD decision or a full employment suitability determination
shall in no way prevent, preclude, or bar the withdrawal or termination of any such access
by DRS, at any time during the tenn of the contract. No employee of the Contractor shall
be allowed to EOD and/or access sensitive infonnation or systems without a favorable
EOD decision or suitability detennination by the Office of Professional Responsibility,
Personnel Security Unit (OPR-PSU). No employee of the Contractor shall be allowed
unescorted access to a Government facility without a favorable EOD decision or
suitability detennination by the OPR-PSU. Contract employees assigned to the contract
not needing access to-sensitive DRS infonnation or recurring access to DHS ' facilities
will not be subject to security suitability screening.
c.
BACKGROUND INVESTIGATIONS
Contract employees (to include applicants, temporaries, part-time and replacement
employees) under the contract, needing access to sensitive information, shall undergo a
position sensitivity analysis based on the duties each individual will perfonn on the
contract. The results of the position sensitivity analysis shall identify the appropriate
background investigation to be conducted. Background investigations will be processed
through the Personnel Security Unit. Prospective Contractor employees with adequate
security clearances issued by the Defense Industrial Security Clearance Office (DISCO)
may not be required to submit complete security packages, as the clearance issued by
DISCO may be accepted. Prospective Contractor employees without adequate security
clearances issued by DISCO shall submit the following completed fonns to the Personnel
Security Unit through the COTR, no less than 5 days before the starting date of the
