Some Op's include a strike package as part of an Oplan. The unit would we briefed on available CAS or CIFs. Then the FAC, JTAC , TACP or FCT would be able to contact and control on station/on call sorties.
Conversely with no on station dedicated sorties the FAC/JTAC or the manuver element commander can contact higher and the ALO can file a JTAR for air support. This type of mission will generally be controlled by an AFAC if the unit does not have a qualed Terminal Controller attached.
