Quick Summary
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Office of Contracting (OCON), has issued a Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEFO) for an extension of the Outcome-based Delivery and Development, Security, Operations Services III (ODOS III) task order.

Key services include:
- Developing security capabilities for threat identification (e.g., social media vetting).
- Maintaining and scaling the enterprise benefits case management system.
- Supporting interactive capabilities and data sharing with partner agencies (ICE, CBP, DoS).
