Drive and participate in RFP/RFI compliance review related to FAR/DFARS pricing obligations and clause‑driven requirements. Serve as the final pre‑submission compliance reviewer on all price volume verifying FAR adherence, cost classifications, fee limits, and TINA certification requirements. Collaborate closely with Capture and Delivery teams throughout the full proposal lifecycle to ensure alignment. Provide leadership and mentorship to analysts.
