  • Lead coordination efforts between key government stakeholders, including the Army Future Concepts Directorate (FCD), Project Manager Uncrewed Aerial Systems (PM UAS), and other major aviation platform organizations.
  • Develop and manage comprehensive program acquisition strategies, program cost and schedule estimates, and program risk assessments and mitigations.
  • Oversee the development and execution of all documentation for Contracts Requirements Packages (CRPs), including Statements of Work (SOW), Performance Work Statements (PWS), Contracts Data Requirements Lists (CDRLs), and Independent Government Cost Estimates (IGCEs).
  • Serve as the lead technical evaluator for contractor proposals and ensure prime contractor performance meets all technical, schedule, and cost requirements.
  • Collaborate with prime contractors, vendors, and government airworthiness and test organizations to define, resource, and execute a clear path to qualification and safety confirmation for new and modified configurations.
  • Brief senior government management on the status, progress, and risks of all assigned projects on a regular basis.
