ORBIT provides a flexible, future–ready framework that will allow us to deliver integrated solutions with the speed and agility our mission demands. We look forward to leveraging this vehicle to drive organizational success and adapt to the challenges of an evolving operational environment.Strategic Context:While our original SWIFT IDIQ successfully established a foundation for rapid task initiation, our mission requirements have matured. We are now moving beyond siloed, platform–specific tasking to a model focused on continuous assembly, integration, and improvement of technical capabilities across the existing ICE environment. The name ORBIT represents this next stage of our technological maturitya framework where Super Intelligence (SI), data, platforms, and collaboration are not managed in isolation, but are strategically integrated to support ICE`s broader operational mission.Key Program Pillars:Align. Integrate. Deliver.: Our new tagline reflects our focus on ensuring technology is seamlessly integrated to drive measurable mission outcomes.Outcome–Based Delivery: We are shifting from static, manual oversight to dynamic SLAs tied directly to delivery and measurable business results.Integrated Functional Streams: The ORBIT domain model organizes our work around mission functional streams (e.g., Mission Platforms, SI/Automation, Enterprise Data, Digital Experience, and Portfolio Integration), resolving previous scope ambiguities and reducing fragmented task orders.Commitment to Continuity: A core objective of this transition is to preserve the continuity of our existing IT landscape. ORBIT fully incorporates the scope for Operations & Maintenance (O&M) and ongoing enhancement activities for all products established under the legacy SWIFT vehicle.Moving Forward:The transition to ORBIT represents a refinement, not a wholesale replacement, of our enterprise vehicle. We are preserving the core strengths that make our current IDIQ successfulincluding ICE OCIO management, enterprise IT scope, multiple–award competition, and task–order flexibilitywhile fundamentally enhancing our ability to govern and integrate complex technical dependencies.Event Information:Purpose: ICE will communicate information to industry on the ICE mission, the future goals of ORBIT, and provide transparency and insight on planned procurement activities.
