The U.S. Space Force Commercial SATCOM Communication Office (CSCO) is responsible for procuring commercial satellite communication services and capabilities for the Department of Defense (DoD), federal, state, and local agencies, as well as international partners. As part of the Space Systems Command (SSC), CSCO serves as the bridge between the DoD and commercial SATCOM providers, enabling the warfighter to access innovative and cost-efficient space capabilities. They manage programs like the Future COMSATCOM Services Acquisition (FCSA) and Proliferated Low Earth Orbit (PLEO) Satellite-Based Services, working with contractors such as SpaceX and Inmarsat. CSCO also supports other agencies like NASA and NRO.
