Overview
United Parcel Service (UPS) is a United States–based package delivery and logistics company founded in 1907 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.[1] Public federal procurement reporting and contract-tracking summaries describe UPS as an awardee on delivery orders issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), for small package delivery services under the government-wide Next Generation Delivery Services (NGDS) contract vehicle.[2][3]
Boycott
UPS is listed for boycott due to documented contract activity providing small package delivery services to ICE.
Contract-tracking summaries describe an ICE (DHS) delivery order to UPS for “Next Generation Delivery Services (NGDS) … small package delivery services,” with reported obligations and an extended performance period through 2026.[2] Additional contract-tracking summaries describe an earlier ICE (DHS) delivery order to UPS for domestic delivery/courier services under NGDS (with performance through 2023).[3]
NGDS is a mandatory-use, government-wide small package delivery services solution, and program documentation identifies UPS as one of the awarded carriers under NGDS (with an associated contract number).[4] Federal guidance also notes that UPS is an approved carrier for overnight delivery under the NGDS program and describes NGDS as an OMB mandatory-use program with current contracts including UPS.[5]
Background
ICE and DHS components rely on vendors and contractors for logistics and delivery services across enforcement and administrative operations. Because logistics contracting can materially support agency operations, ICE List documents and, where applicable, boycotts companies whose work supports immigration enforcement agencies, including ICE and CBP, through federal contracting and service delivery.[4][5]
