September 21, 2026
Background:
The Office of the Principal Legal Advisor (OPLA) provides the legal advice, training, and services required to support the ICE mission while defending the immigration laws of the United States in administrative and Federal courts. Pursuant to section 442 (c) of the Homeland Security Act, OPLA is the exclusive legal representative for ICE and is the DHS legal component authorized to represent the Federal government in all exclusion, deportation, and removal proceedings before the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR). OPLA attorneys are primarily assigned to litigate cases in immigration court. One such court is co-located with OPLA’s Office located in the Peter W. Rodino Federal Building at 970 Broad Street, Newark, NJ, 07102. Court is frequently in session late into the day or early evening. Additionally, attorney workloads often require attorneys who are not in court to work late during the day. During a significant portion of the year, attorneys frequently leave the office after sunset.
Objective:
To address safety and security concerns pertaining to the area surrounding the OPLA Office in Newark, NJ, OPLA seeks to procure late afternoon/early evening ground transportation service to transport attorneys from the office to Penn Station, Broad Street Station, and three parking lots located in close proximity to the Broad Street office. The government’s intent is to issue a firm, fixed price contract.
Scope of Work:
Due to existing and ongoing safety and security issues concerning the area in proximity to the Newark NJ Borad Street office, OPLA requires ground transportation service to transport its attorneys from 970 Broad Street to Penn Station, Broad Street Station, and parking lots in the vicinity of the Broad Street office. Specifically, the contractor will: 1. Provide a driver, who will always conduct himself/herself in a courteous and professional manner, and an 8–10 passenger capacity van or vehicle for ground transportation service.

2. The driver shall:

a. Pickup OPLA employees at 970 Broad Street beginning at 4:30pm. b. The driver will then transport the employees, on as needed/directed basis, to the locations listed below as required by each employee (see Attachement 1 for reference):
• Penn Station located at Raymond Plaza
