COMSATCOM Infrastructure

Abstract

IAW the FY18 NDAA 1601(a), as amended, and on behalf of the Chief of Space Operations (CSO) and in consultation with the DoD Chief Information Officer (CIO), the USSF Commercial Satellite Communications Office (CSCO), serves as the sole authority for the procurement of COMSATCOM services for the DoD; this responsibility was previously held by DISA. In order to provide the joint warfighter with modernized access to COMSATCOM services and ensure combat effectiveness across all domains, the CSCO requires a comprehensive COMSATCOM Management & Control (CM&C) Systems of Systems. CM&C implementation is also critical to complete the Congressionally-mandated COMSATCOM mission transition from DISA to USSF. The CM&C Program will have multiple components including: (1) Business Suite & Marketplace designed to automate and streamline requests for work and customer interaction, thereby replacing manual processes for over 100 different contracts valued at $5B over the FYDP; (2) Financial Management System required to operate a new and cutting-edge Enterprise Space Activity Group (ESAG) under the Defense Working Capital Funds (DWCF); (3) Integration with third party systems and capabilities, including cloud-based hosting and Enterprise Management & Control (EM&C) - the nexus of future USSF space-based SATCOM Command and Control (C2).
