Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) assumed responsibility Dec. 12 for procurement of commercial satellite communications services for the Defense Department (DoD) from the Director of the Defense Information Systems Agency. This transfer means AFSPC will oversee procurement of nearly all military and commercial SATCOM for the DoD, and will allow it to manage SATCOM as an enterprise, integrating delivery of all SATCOM services in the future. Formal transfer of the personnel to AFSPC will occur by October of next year.
