Overview
Palantir Technologies is a United States–based software and data analytics company and a major government contractor. Public records and reporting describe Palantir as a long-running contractor to DHS components, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), providing investigative case management and analytics platforms used in immigration enforcement and investigations.[1][2]
Boycott
Palantir Technologies is listed for boycott due to documented work supporting DHS immigration enforcement operations, including ICE HSI systems described as mission-critical for case management and investigative analytics.
Public records released via FOIA describe a Palantir contract vehicle with ICE that includes responsibilities for implementation, operation, and maintenance of Palantir-provided capabilities supporting ICE investigative functions.[1]
FOIA productions and advocacy documentation also describe FALCON as HSI’s customized implementation of Palantir Gotham, used for federated search and analytics across multiple law-enforcement data environments.[3]
Palantir has publicly announced renewals of its HSI partnership tied to Investigative Case Management (ICM).[4]
More recent reporting describes ICE awarding Palantir a contract to develop a new platform referred to as “ImmigrationOS,” expanding ICE’s data-integration and operational tooling.[5][6]
Additional summaries of Palantir’s ICE relationship, contract totals, and related documentation are compiled by AFSC Investigate.[7]
Background
ICE and other DHS components rely on contractors for technology platforms and analytics across enforcement and investigative functions. Because these contracts can contribute to surveillance, targeting, and enforcement capacity, ICE List documents and, where applicable, boycotts companies whose work materially supports DHS immigration enforcement operations.[7]
