Overview

The U.S. Department of Education (ED) is the Cabinet-level federal agency responsible for establishing policy, administering federal education funding, and enforcing civil rights laws that ensure equal access to education. Headquartered at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Building in Washington, DC, ED supports programs ranging from Federal Student Aid to K-12 and postsecondary grant administration, serving millions of students, families, schools, and institutions across the country.

Delivering on that mission depends on resilient, secure, and high-performing IT. ED's program offices manage large volumes of sensitive applicant and financial data, operate citizen-facing digital services, and increasingly adopt cloud, zero-trust, and modern networking architectures aligned with federal mandates such as FISMA, FedRAMP, and OMB modernization directives. Reliable enterprise networking, data center infrastructure, and Wi-Fi connectivity underpin the day-to-day work of headquarters staff and distributed regional teams.

Uniqcli supports Department of Education IT leaders with the full HPE portfolio: HPE Aruba Networking for secure campus switching and wireless, HPE Juniper Networking for high-throughput routing and AI-driven operations, and HPE ProLiant servers, Alletra storage, and GreenLake hybrid cloud for the data center. As an authorized reseller serving the U.S. public sector, we pair the right products with the right contract vehicle so procurement teams can buy quickly, compliantly, and at competitive government pricing.
