Amentum Services named new contractor for Camp East Montana detention center

EL PASO, TEXAS (KFOX14/CBS4) — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed engineering and technology services company Amentum Services Inc. will now be the new contractor responsible for managing El Paso's Camp East Montana, the largest immigration detention facility in the country.

In a statement on Monday, an ICE spokesperson confirmed to KFOX14/CBS4 that Amentum Services Inc. will be taking over as the primary contractor for the detention facility, replacing the previous contractor, Acquisition Logistics LLC. Amentum Services was initially the subcontractor for the facility.


"Amentum has been a close partner with ICE in managing Camp East Montana and was best suited to take over as the prime government contractor for this facility. Amentum’s size, maturity, and pedigree make them the right partner at the right time, and we will work closely with them in their implementation of higher standards of medical care, more thorough case processing and intake procedures, and delivery of performance requirements according to well-defined accountability measures," an ICE spokesperson said.

ICE added that it "will continue to ensure that all of the detainees in our custody receive the level of care, service, and medical support they need to match our high detention standards.”
