About Graham County Community College District
Graham County Community College District, doing business as Eastern Arizona College, is a public two-year community college and Minority Institution / Hispanic-Serving Institution based in Thatcher, Arizona that delivers adult occupational education and vocational training programs to the Federal Bureau of Prisons as a prime contractor, with recent activity concentrated on a single indefinite delivery contract vehicle valued at $1.121 million held with the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons since December 2019.
Eastern Arizona College operates as a U.S. local government entity and state-controlled institution of higher learning. The college competes full-and-open without set-aside designations across its federal footprint. The institution is classified as both a Minority Institution and a Hispanic-Serving Institution, serving rural eastern Arizona with a mission centered on educational accessibility and workforce development.
The college's federal revenue derives almost entirely from its relationship with the Federal Correctional Institution Safford. The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Institution Safford accounts for 83 awards (91% of total awards) with $7.5 million in combined potential value, representing the overwhelming majority of the college's federal work. The college delivers building trades, HVAC, general business, retail management, carpentry, and fitness training programs to support inmate rehabilitation and workforce development. Monthly and quarterly purchase orders and delivery orders flow through the primary indefinite delivery contract (DJBP060900000025), which anchors the work with 14 task orders carrying $947 thousand in combined potential value. Two additional IDV vehicles (DJB60902042 and 15B60920D00000039) carry 20 additional task orders totaling $1.311 million. Individual purchase orders range from roughly $1,900 to $35,200; delivery orders typically run $48,700 to $133,900.
The college also operates as a federal grant recipient. The Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education awarded a $2,197,555 Project Grant under the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) program, effective January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2027, to support institutional reforms and expand rural accessibility to college and career programs. The college serves as a sub-recipient under the Maricopa County Community College District on the 2024 and 2025 Arizona Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Cooperative Agreement sub-awards, with the 2024 sub-award adjusted from $127,856 to $122,000.
Activity has accelerated in recent years — two awards in 2022 to nine in 2025 — though the 2026 year-to-date count stands at four awards (as of June 2026). The indefinite delivery contract vehicles that anchor the Bureau of Prisons work position the college for ongoing task-order competition under full-and-open procedures with no set-aside designations. The college's federal footprint reflects specialization in correctional-facility vocational education rather than diversification across multiple agencies or sectors.
