Proven Partners in Federal Detention Compliance
From ODO audits to occupancy reviews, CCS brings decades of hands-on ICE detention operations, contract oversight, and standards expertise to every federal engagement.
More than 500 compliance inspections. Every facility type. Every standard.
CCS brings extensive, hands-on experience in ICE detention operations — including detention contract oversight, facility security, and program management across Service Processing Centers (SPC), Contract Detention Facilities (CDF), Intergovernmental Service Agreement (IGSA and DIGSA) facilities, and U.S. Marshals Service contract rider facilities.
Our team has performed more than 500 compliance inspections and has deep experience with Office of Detention Oversight (ODO) audits — from preparation and response through the development and management of detention compliance corrective action plans to closure. We know these standards because we've worked under them, trained on them, and audited against them for decades.
"Federal detention compliance isn't a checklist — it's an operational discipline. Our people have run these facilities, inspected them, and trained the staff who secure them."

Federal Detention Compliance Questions
What is an ODO audit?
An ODO audit is a compliance inspection conducted by ICE's Office of Detention Oversight to evaluate a detention facility against the applicable national detention standards (PBNDS, NDS, or FPBDS). CCS supports facilities with ODO audit preparation, on-site response, and corrective action plan management.
What ICE facility types does CCS work with?
CCS has experience across every ICE detention facility type, including Service Processing Centers (SPC), Contract Detention Facilities (CDF), Intergovernmental Service Agreement facilities (IGSA and DIGSA), and U.S. Marshals Service contract rider facilities, as well as Federal Bureau of Prisons institutions.
What is SAAPI and how does it relate to PREA?
SAAPI (Sexual Assault Awareness, Prevention and Intervention) is the ICE detention standard addressing sexual abuse and assault. It mirrors the Department of Justice's Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) standards. CCS provides audit and compliance support under both DOJ PREA and DHS SAAPI.
Which detention standards does CCS train and audit under?
CCS works under Performance-Based National Detention Standards (PBNDS), the National Detention Standards including NDS 2025, and Family Residential Standards (FPBDS), in addition to DOJ PREA, DHS SAAPI, and ACA accreditation standards.
