The U.S. Air Force Air Education and Training Command (AETC) awarded a $98,431.36 firm fixed-price purchase order to Federal Prison Industries, Inc. (doing business as FPI Unicor) on May 5, 2025, for office furniture to support Building 3885 at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland in Texas. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, was issued in accordance with a Statement of Work dated April 4, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of May 29, 2026. FPI Unicor, a wholly-owned government corporation headquartered in Lexington, Kentucky, will perform the work at its facility in Lexington, KY 40511.
While the award summary references office furniture procurement, the originating solicitation (FA301625Q0105) indicates AETC initially sought a comprehensive technology refresh for the Saudi Country Liaison Offices at Lackland, including NTS Elite Tower Workstations, Samsung 4K monitors, HP scanners, LaserJet Enterprise printers, and Kensington keyboards—equipment required to be Trade Agreements Act compliant and delivered by May 26, 2025. The procurement was fully reimbursed through case funds from the Security Assistance Training Field Activity and Air Forces Security Assistance and Training, with no direct cost to the Air Force. FPI Unicor's selection demonstrates AETC's utilization of the government-owned contractor's manufacturing and procurement capabilities to fulfill federal agency technology and facilities needs while supporting the organization's dual mission of workforce development and rehabilitation for incarcerated individuals.
