# GEO Group Operates Big Spring ICE Complex

The City of Big Spring, Texas, entered a 10-year intergovernmental service agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to activate the 2,329-bed Big Spring Complex as a federal immigration processing center. Announced November 2, 2026, the arrangement calls for The GEO Group to provide security, maintenance, food, medical care, transportation, and related support services. GEO expects approximately $200 million in annual revenue in the first full year of operations; the announcement does not state a start date, solicitation number, or procurement contact for bids.

- The agreement establishes a long-term, multi-service operating requirement at a specific Texas facility, with GEO as the identified service provider.
- Contractors with capabilities in facility operations, food, medical care, transportation, maintenance, or security may assess whether downstream subcontracting or support-service needs arise; no open solicitation is identified in the announcement.
- Procurement teams should distinguish GEO’s projected annual revenue from the agreement’s total value, which was not stated.
