DoDIN-Approved Cisco Networking & SD-WAN at Fort Sill, OK

Fort Sill's dual identity — Fires schoolhouse and basic training post — means its network buyers manage very different problems at once. Field Artillery and Air Defense Artillery instruction increasingly runs on networked simulators, gunnery trainers, and range instrumentation that need to stay isolated from general garrison traffic, which is where Secure Firewall and ISE-based segmentation earn their keep. Basic Combat Training barracks and classrooms, meanwhile, need dependable Catalyst wireless coverage across a high-turnover trainee population that cycles through every few weeks, putting a premium on access-point density and uptime over exotic feature sets.

With the Army's October 2025 stand-up of Transformation and Training Command (T2COM) — replacing the legacy Training and Doctrine Command — Fort Sill's Fires Center of Excellence now reports through that new structure, but the acquisition fundamentals on the ground haven't changed: GPC for small buys, GSA Schedule and SEWP for larger IT refreshes, and DoDIN APL listing with TAA compliance expected on any device connecting to an Army network. Given the volume of trainees and instructors cycling through Fort Sill year-round, buyers also value vendors who can support fast turnaround on barracks and classroom refresh cycles without disrupting active training schedules.
