Valle del Cauca Anti-Criminal Mining Taskforce

The contract aims to refurbish police infrastructure in Farrallones National Park and the Colombia National Police investigative unit offices in Valle del Cauca to bolster counter-narcotics and anti-illegal gold mining efforts. The improvements are designed to enhance coordination, operational capacity, and long-term sustainability of law enforcement activities in high-risk areas where illegal mining and drug trafficking intersect. Modernization of these facilities will support integrated command and control functions critical for sustained interdiction and intelligence-led operations. Additionally, the project includes the acquisition of advanced satellite imagery, secure communication systems, and surveillance technology to improve real-time monitoring and strategic planning across the park’s vast and remote terrain. These tools will enable law enforcement to detect illicit activities more effectively, track movement patterns, and allocate resources with greater precision. The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs within the Department of State is overseeing the initiative, with point of contact Jamillah Timmons managing communications and Tyler Sinclair supporting small business engagement. The project is forecasted under the NAICS code 541611, indicating it involves administrative management and general management consulting services, suggesting a strong focus on operational restructuring and technical support rather than direct construction.
