Overview

The Social Security Administration is one of the largest data-processing organizations in the federal government, administering retirement, survivors, disability, and Supplemental Security Income programs for tens of millions of Americans. Its headquarters campus in Woodlawn, Maryland anchors a nationwide footprint that includes the National Support Center in Urbana, Maryland, regional offices, processing centers, and a vast network of local field offices and teleservice centers. Sustaining this mission depends on resilient, high-availability IT infrastructure that can process enormous transaction volumes accurately and securely every day.

SSA's IT modernization priorities center on data center optimization, cloud and hybrid readiness, cybersecurity, and the digital services that let the public file claims, manage benefits, and verify identity online. As legacy systems are modernized and workloads shift toward more flexible, software-defined infrastructure, the agency needs compute, storage, and networking platforms that deliver performance at scale while meeting strict federal security and supply-chain requirements.

Uniqcli supports SSA contracting officers and IT program offices by aligning HPE, HPE Aruba Networking, and HPE Juniper Networking solutions to these priorities. We focus on TAA-compliant sourcing, accurate quoting against the right contract vehicle, and dependable delivery, configuration, and lifecycle support so technology refresh projects stay on schedule and within budget.

IT & infrastructure priorities

Data Center Modernization

SSA's headquarters and National Support Center run high-volume benefit and records workloads. HPE ProLiant compute and HPE Alletra storage support consolidation, virtualization, and performance-at-scale refreshes that reduce footprint and energy use.

Secure, Resilient Networking

Connecting the Woodlawn campus, processing centers, and 1,200-plus field offices requires reliable, segmented networks. Aruba and HPE Juniper switching, routing, and Wi-Fi 6E deliver throughput, redundancy, and centralized management.

Zero Trust & Cybersecurity

Protecting Americans' personal and benefit data is mission-critical. Aruba ClearPass and Zero Trust-aligned segmentation, plus Juniper security platforms, help SSA enforce least-privilege access and continuous verification.

Storage, Backup & Continuity

Massive records volumes demand resilient, recoverable storage. HPE Alletra and StoreOnce support data protection, rapid recovery, and continuity-of-operations objectives for benefit-processing systems.

Hybrid Cloud & Field Office Edge

As workloads modernize, HPE GreenLake consumption models and edge-ready compute help SSA balance on-premises control with cloud flexibility across distributed field offices.

What contract vehicles can SSA use to buy HPE and Aruba hardware from Uniqcli?

Today Uniqcli sells to federal and SLED buyers via Government Purchase Card (GPC) direct, Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP, FAR Part 13), FAR-based purchase orders and RFQs, and GSA eBuy, with WAWF/PIEE registration for DoD invoicing and acceptance.
