Canadian Valley Technology Center

Canadian Valley Technology Center, a public vocational school district and local government entity headquartered in El Reno, Oklahoma, operates as a prime contractor delivering skilled trades vocational instruction — electrical, plumbing, and diesel mechanics — to the Federal Bureau of Prisons' Federal Correctional Institution at El Reno under firm fixed-price delivery orders and a single-award indefinite-delivery contract. The center competes without set-aside designations and is not a small business, 8(a), or other SBA-designated vendor.

The center's federal footprint is heavily concentrated in Bureau of Prisons correctional education. Of 154 total awards spanning prime contracts, an IDV, and grant sub-awards, 136 awards (93% of the award count, covering 93% of the combined potential value) fund vocational programs at FCI El Reno, with a combined potential value of $8.3 million. The center also holds three grant sub-awards from the Department of Education Office of Career Technical and Adult Education (2025 and 2026 Adult Education State Grant Program and 2024 Vocational Education Basic Grants to States awards, administered through the Oklahoma Department of Career and Technology Education as prime grantee), and two awards from the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education. The top five customers account for coverage of 93% of recent awards.

Canadian Valley Technology Center holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract (ceiling $1,467,944.03, performance through March 31, 2029) issued by the Bureau of Prisons on July 1, 2024, authorizing vocational instruction in electrical, plumbing, and diesel mechanics at FCI El Reno. Under this IDV, 70 task orders carry a combined potential value of $1.2 million. The center also operates under three older Bureau of Prisons IDVs with a cumulative 68 active task orders valued at $9.1 million combined. Representative recent delivery orders include a $95,924.34 electrical training order (October 1, 2026, completion September 30, 2027), a $229,298.56 electrical and plumbing order (October 1, 2024, completion September 30, 2025), and a $112,200.95 multi-trade order (October 1, 2023, completion March 14, 2024). Annual task-order funding historically ranges from approximately $20,000 to $243,000 per fiscal year. Of $17.5 million in combined potential value across all 154 awards, $8.8 million (50%) has been obligated. Activity declined sharply from 2024 (five awards) to 2026 (one award), with only two awards facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, carrying a combined recompete exposure of $130 thousand. The center's footprint spans NAICS 541712 (Other Technical and Trade Schools, 148 awards) and PSC Education/Training categories (79 awards in Vocational/Technical, 69 in General Education/Training).
