LinQuest has received a potential one-year, $9.3M contract from the U.S. Air Force to help the service establish a unified combatant command focused on space.
The company will provide non-personal support services for the joint force space component commander to form U.S. Space Command under the cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, the Department of Defense said Monday.
President Donald Trump ordered the formation of Space Command through a memorandum issued in December.
Work will occur at Schriever Air Force Base and Peterson AFB in Colorado through April 2020.
The service will obligate $4.5M in operations and maintenance funds for fiscal 2019 at the time of award.
