Overview

The National Park Service (NPS) is a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Interior, headquartered in Washington, DC. It stewards more than 400 park units across every U.S. state and several territories, including national parks, monuments, historic sites, seashores, and recreation areas. Few federal organizations operate across such a geographically dispersed and connectivity-challenged footprint.

That footprint defines the agency's IT mission. NPS technology teams must keep visitor centers, entrance stations, administrative offices, ranger stations, maintenance facilities, and backcountry sites connected and secure. Many locations sit in rural or remote terrain with limited carrier service, intermittent power, and harsh environmental conditions, which raises the bar for resilient networking, redundant connectivity, and ruggedized edge hardware. At the same time, NPS supports public-facing services such as visitor Wi-Fi, reservation and fee-collection systems, point-of-sale, and law enforcement and emergency communications.

Like other Interior bureaus, NPS aligns to federal cybersecurity priorities including Zero Trust architecture, continuous monitoring, and standardized infrastructure that simplifies management across distributed sites. Modernizing aging switches, wireless access points, and field data centers, while staying within FAR and Trade Agreements Act sourcing rules, is a recurring procurement need that Uniqcli is positioned to support.

IT & infrastructure priorities

Resilient Remote & Edge Networking

Hundreds of NPS sites operate far from carrier hubs. Hardened switching, SD-WAN, and edge compute keep visitor centers, ranger stations, and field offices connected with failover and offline resilience.

Secure Wireless for Visitors & Staff

Aruba access points and centralized management deliver segmented guest Wi-Fi, separate operational networks, and consistent policy across geographically scattered parks and historic sites.

Zero Trust & Network Segmentation

Aligning with federal Zero Trust mandates, role-based access, microsegmentation, and identity-driven controls protect administrative, law-enforcement, and public systems on shared infrastructure.

Data Center & Storage Modernization

HPE ProLiant compute and Alletra storage refresh aging regional and headquarters infrastructure, supporting GIS, reservation systems, records, and backup with reliable, supportable platforms.

Standardized, Manageable Infrastructure

Cloud-managed networking reduces truck rolls and centralizes visibility across 400-plus units, letting small IT teams operate a sprawling estate efficiently and securely.

How Uniqcli serves National Park Service

HPE Aruba Networking for Distributed Parks

Aruba switches, gateways, and access points with cloud-based central management give NPS consistent, secure connectivity and policy across remote and urban sites, managed from a single pane regardless of how scattered the estate is.

HPE Juniper Networking for the Core

Juniper routing, switching, and security harden regional hubs and headquarters with high-performance, automation-ready networking that scales as NPS modernizes its WAN and Zero Trust posture.

HPE ProLiant & Alletra for Field and Regional Compute

Right-sized ProLiant servers and Alletra storage support GIS, visitor systems, and local applications at parks where cloud connectivity is unreliable, with the durability remote operations demand.

TAA-Compliant Sourcing & Lifecycle Support

Uniqcli supplies only TAA-compliant, authorized HPE, Aruba, and Juniper hardware, with configuration, asset tagging, staging, deployment coordination, and warranty support tailored to federal field operations.

Frequently asked

How can the National Park Service buy HPE and Aruba equipment from Uniqcli?
