The 436th Communication Squadron (436 CS) serves as the Requiring Office (RO), and the 436th Contracting Squadron (436 CONS) serves as the administering contracting office.

These services are considered Information Technology (IT) In Accordance With (IAW) Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 239.74 “Telecommunications Services.” The Air Force (AF) encourages the Contractor to identify or suggest improvements to existing LTS processes, operating procedures, systems, or applications to the Contracting Officer (CO).
