    The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for the development of a Migrant Case Management System (CMS). This initiative aims to assist a foreign immigration enforcement agency in managing the removal process for irregular migrants in a humane and lawful manner.
