The contractor will be required to furnish all personnel, management, equipment, supplies and services necessary for performance of all aspects of the contract requirement. The MOC has permanent structures with a base operational capacity of approximately 130 migrants with additional capacity via temporary structures for approximately 400 additional migrants in the event of a sudden surge in the migrant population. The contractor will assume primary responsibility for migrant care from the time custody is transferred, after arrival, until the migrant is repatriated or resettled.
