Purpose: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is conducting market research related to the potential modernization of its current Enforcement Action Statistical Analysis and Reporting System (E-STAR). E-STAR is CBP s digital system for reporting incidents involving use of force, assaults against officers/agents, and/or vehicle pursuits. The primary objective of this potential modernization effort is to replace the existing system with a cost-effective, adaptable solution capable of integrating with other technologies. CBP is seeking information on a wide range of potential solutions, from incremental improvements to the current E-STAR system to entirely new and innovative approaches for meeting its incident reporting requirements. Solutions should allow for rapid updates to requirements without incurring excessive costs. The Law Enforcement Safety and Compliance (LESC) Directorate, located in Harpers Ferry, WV, is conducting market research on behalf of Operations Support, CBP, to identify incident reporting that represent the most effective approach for delivering a modernized E-STAR system. To support this market research, CBP invites interested vendors to provide information regarding CBP's E-STAR system requirements. Note: The capabilities outlined in this RFI and its attachments do not represent definitive CBP requirements and are subject to change prior to any potential future solicitation. Furthermore, all quantities and details provided are notional and do not constitute potential solicitation quantities. Vendors should not interpret the listed capabilities as final or representative of CBP's actual requirements. The listed capabilities are for informational purposes only. Questions from the Government: Please respond to the topics and questions included in Attachment 2 regarding your company's capabilities. While responses to all questions are optional, vendors must respond to all questions in Section A to be eligible to attend the Industry Day. Industry Day Attendance LESC Directorate will host an E-STAR Industry Day, at the CBP Advanced Training Center (440 Koonce Rd Harpers Ferry, WV 25425) on Thursday July 24, 2025. The purpose of this event is to share information with industry partners regarding CBP's requirements for the E-STAR system. During the Industry Day, CBP will present the current system's capabilities, as well as CBP's desired capabilities and efficiencies for a future system. CBP also seeks feedback from industry on how these desired capabilities and efficiencies can be achieved. A schedule and directions for attending the event will be provided to vendors that respond to this RFI.
