SUBJECT: Enterprise Satellite Communications Management and Control Implementation Plan
References: (a) DoD Digital Modernization Strategy, July 2019
(b) United States Space Force Vision for Satellite Communications, January 2020
The Enterprise Satellite Communications (SA TCOM) Management and Control (ESC-
MC) Implementation Plan,
in
support
of
the Department
of
Defense's Digital Modernization
Strategy and the United States Space Force Vision for Satellite Communications, will facilitate
United States Space Command's role as the Global SATCOM Manager by delivering
operationally relevant SA TCOM resource planning and allocation.
The ESC-MC Implementation Plan also provides the foundational capabilities necessary
for the on-going Future SATCOM Force Design, including increased reliance on commercial
SA TCOM and stronger partnerships with our Allies, as the Department builds out and executes
Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2).
DoD Components are expected to appropriately resource capabilities outlined
in
the
implementation plan through deliberate planning, programming and budgeting.
My point
of
contact for the implementation plan
is
Mr. Michael R. Dean,
