DescriptionThe hardest part of enterprise IT is not the technology, it is getting the right work under contract and delivered without a gap in services. The Red Gate Group is seeking an IT Project Manager to support a major Intelligence Community customer's CIO organization, owning project performance end to end while driving acquisition activities through the full lifecycle so requirements become awarded contracts and delivered capability on time.You will own all aspects of project performance: technical, contractual, and administrative.

You will manage and supervise personnel across project activity, organize and assign responsibilities, and make sure every team member knows and executes their role and understands everyone else's. You will keep production schedules on track, use system resources effectively, coordinate resolution of production problems, validate project concepts with the customer, ensure project documentation is complete, and build the relationships between customers, teaming partners, and vendors that IT service delivery depends on.The center of gravity in this seat is acquisition. You will provide pre-acquisition and post-award contract administration support to CIO stakeholders, working with requirement owners to develop and mature requirements packages including Performance Work Statements, CDRLs, Quality Assurance Surveillance Plans, Service Level Agreements, Independent Government Cost Estimates, and evaluation factors, then coordinating with the Contracting Officer to finalize solicitation documentation before release. You will provide cost and price analysis in support of IGCEs, drive early pre-acquisition activity so lead times protect against gaps in service, recommend acquisition strategies grounded in technical requirements and historical data, and maintain acquisition plans, program control, and contract portfolio tracking across multiple award vehicles and task orders. You will advise CORs and program managers throughout the acquisition lifecycle, coordinate with financial and contracting offices and resource managers for agile execution, facilitate Program Management Reviews, Quarterly Business Reviews, Technical Exchange Meetings, and Award Fee Boards when required, and support SharePoint site administration and the consolidation of monthly financial reporting for CIO senior officials.
