Overview

Tinker Air Force Base sits just southeast of Oklahoma City and is one of the largest single-site employers in Oklahoma. It is home to the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (OC-ALC), one of three Air Force depot maintenance complexes, along with Air Force Sustainment Center elements and the 72nd Air Base Wing that operates and supports the installation. Tinker also hosts the 552nd Air Control Wing and its E-3 Sentry AWACS fleet, the 507th Air Refueling Wing, and Navy tenant activity, making it a sprawling, mission-diverse campus.

As a major depot and sustainment hub, Tinker runs a heavy mix of engineering, logistics, maintenance management and back-office IT. Depot workloads, supply-chain systems and large industrial facilities place real demands on data center compute, storage capacity and high-availability networking across shops, hangars and administrative buildings. Modernizing aging infrastructure, consolidating data centers and extending reliable wired and wireless coverage across an enormous physical footprint are recurring procurement themes for installations of this scale.

Like all DoD installations, Tinker buyers must balance security, compliance and lifecycle cost. That means TAA-compliant hardware, support for Zero Trust and DoD cybersecurity requirements, and predictable lead times. Uniqcli pairs HPE, Aruba and Juniper engineering with the contract vehicles federal buyers already use, so Tinker IT and contracting teams can refresh infrastructure without sourcing friction.
