Lieven interviews Okrand (qepHom 2017: p.15) :
   LLL:   The "Klingon High Command" is called {ra'ghomquv}, and their "Operations Command" is called {yo'SeH yaHnIv}.  What would be the Starfleet versions of these? 
   MO: For "Starfleet Command," another alternative is {'ejyo' ra'ghomquv}, using {ra'ghomquv}, the word for "High Command."  If Starfleet Command is of a lower level of importance than Starfleet High Command, leave off the {quv}, getting {ra'ghom}.  But if Starfleet Command is the highest level (but, unlike the Klingons, just doesn't use the word "High" in its name), keep the {quv}.  If "Starfleet Command" is more like "Starfleet Operations Command", then go with {'ejyo'SeH yaHnIv}.  

TREK NOTES:
"USFA headquarters notified of the mysterious loss of science probe vessel Antares." (TOS "Charlie X")  The Enterprise unsuccessfully attempted to contact "Starfleet Control" after being thrust back in time to 1964 Earth; when they returned to their own time Starfleet Control was trying to contact them. (TOS "Tomorrow is Yesterday")  Is this the same as "Space Central", who was asked to send teachers and advisors to the parallel Earth  (TOS "Miri")?

The Vulcan High Command was specifically equated with Earth’s Starfleet in the 22nd century. T’Pol worked for the High Command when she was assigned to the Enterprise. (ENT passim), when it was headed by Administrator V’Las. (ENT “The Forge”).  Was the 24th century Vulcan Defense Force the successor to the 22nd century High Command?) 

The Cardassian Central Command was referred to in various DS9 episodes; it is often at odds with the Obsidian Order. (e.g. DS9 “Improbably Cause & “The Die is Cast”)
