GovCon Pricing Manager
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only sections that have real content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no boilerplate. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to extract relevant content: Who We Are (company description) maybe as About the role? Actually "Who We Are" is company overview; could be placed under About the role? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content to these headings. Likely sections: About the role (company overview + role context), Responsibilities (What You’ll Do), Requirements (What You’ll Bring maybe includes experience, education), Qualifications (maybe overlapping), Skills (maybe specific skills), Pay (Compensation), Benefits (maybe not present? There's mention of benefits? Not explicit; only compensation range. No explicit benefits listed. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. There's no explicit benefits, so omit Benefits. Schedule: location remote, preference for commute; maybe schedule not given. No explicit schedule. So omit Schedule.
We need to include Pay section with salary range.
We need to include maybe "Location" but not in list; but we could incorporate location info under About the role or maybe as a short p. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we can include in a short p under About the role or separate? Probably include as a p after About the role. We must preserve all substantive information: company description, role reporting line, responsibilities list, requirements list (experience, education, skills, etc). Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must remove duplicated lines. Let's extract substantive content: From "Who We Are": Headquartered in Washington, DC, Versar Global Solutions provides full mission lifecycle solutions for challenges faced by our government and commercial Customers in the natural, built, and digital environments. With team members around the world and a rich legacy spanning more than 50 years, Versar Global Solutions delivers a broad array of planning, analysis and risk management solutions, project and program management, operations and maintenance services, and information technology applications for environmental management and remediation projects, mission critical facilities and installations, and in support of readiness and contingency operations. That's substantive. From "Who You Are": Reporting to the Vice President of Pricing & Cost Strategy, the GovCon Pricing Manager role requires proactive management, functional accountability, and is expected to perform the duties and responsibilities of this position with a strong commitment to enterprise collaboration, compliance, accountability, and measurable business results. Versar operates globally in government contracting and commercial markets, including remote, complex, and austere environments. This position requires sound judgment, analytical precision, adaptability, integrity, and the ability to execute pricing models for varied geographies, contract types, customer requirements, regulatory regimes, risk profiles, and operating conditions. That's also substantive; could be part of About the role or maybe a short p. Now "What You’ll Do": list of responsibilities. Let's extract bullet points: - Manages day-to-day pricing operations, pricing strategy and cost volume delivery across enterprise task orders, modifications, recompetes, and strategic new business opportunities. - Develops complete pricing packages, including complex excel cost models, cost narratives and compliant government pricing deliverables. - Develops, customizes, and executes robust, flexible and consistent Excel-based pricing models tailored to specific RFP evaluation criteria and contract types (FFP, CPFF, CPAF, T&M). - Executes the use of established pricing tools, templates, data sources, pricing repositories, and review standards to maintain consistency and accuracy across cost proposal actions. - Implements established pricing governance, review processes, and approval standards. - Ensures full compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR), Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), DCAA/DCMA audit expectations, and company policies. - Partners with Business Development, Capture, Operations, Contracts, Procurement, and Finance to develop winning pricing strategies aligned with proposed technical solutions and executable cost models. - Coordinates with other Functional departments to obtain the necessary data required to develop compliant and competitive cost proposals. - Participates in capture strategy development, color team reviews, executive reviews, and senior management discussions as required. - Develops pricing strategies using parametric cost modeling, competitor intelligence, customer knowledge, historical pricing data, and operational input. - Conducts detailed cost analysis covering labor rate analyses, competitor pricing assessments, cost realism evaluations, and subcontractor price assessments. - Provides high-level analysis of competitor rates, teammate pricing, indirect rates, labor categories, and bid assumptions. - Drafts comprehensive pricing narratives and Basis of Estimate (BOE) documentation that clearly justify pricing methodologies to government evaluators. - Mitigates financial and execution risk by identifying margin sensitivities, currency/tax exposures in austere regions, escalation variables and delivery assumptions. - Supervises, mentors, and develops mid-level and junior pricing analysts, ensuring baseline modeling quality, adherence to schedules, and standardized format utilization. - Facilitates management reviews, presenting gross margin rollups, pricing scenarios, risk analyses, and cash flow impacts to senior business unit leaders. - Coordinates with Operations to ensure proposed staffing, level of effort, subcontracting, travel, materials, indirect rates, and margin assumptions are realistic and executable. - Reviews BOE documentation, subcontractor and teammate inputs, cost volumes, pricing narratives, and compliance matrices for quality and consistency. - Advises senior leadership on pricing risk, margin impact, contract type considerations, and investment decisions. - Performs cross-reviews of team pricing proposals to guarantee error-free submissions and compliance with FAR, DFAR, and CAS. - Maintain strict data custody over sensitive, proprietary, and competitive intelligence files within secure enterprise pricing repositories. - Ensures all cost proposals and supporting documentation are appropriately documented and stored within secure enterprise pricing repositories. - Performs other duties as directed by the Vice President of Pricing & Cost Strategy or other functional leadership.

Now "Compensation": Expected Salary: $140,000/yr - $175,000/yr plus description about compensation range etc. We need to include Pay section with that range. The description about compensation range is somewhat boilerplate but still substantive? It says "Versar Global Solutions provides the compensation range and general description of other compensation and benefits that the Company in good faith believes it might pay and/or offer for this position based on the successful applicant’s education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities in addition to internal equity and geographic location. The Company reserves the right to ultimately pay more or less than the posted range and offer additional benefits and other compensation, depending on circumstances not related to an applicant’s status protected by local, state, or federal law." This is somewhat generic but still part of compensation description. We can include it as a paragraph under Pay. Now location: "Location Requirements This position will primarily be remote. Preference will be given to candidates who can commute to one of Versar's offices." That's location info; we can include as a short p maybe under About the role or separate. We must not include EEO Commitment etc. So remove that. Now we need to decide sections. Possible sections: - About the role (company overview + reporting line + location maybe) - Responsibilities (What You’ll Do) - Requirements (What You’ll Bring) maybe split into Qualifications and Skills? But we can combine into Requirements. The instruction list includes Requirements, Qualifications, Skills as possible headings. We need to decide which to use based on content. We have experience, education, skills (Excel, Word, PowerPoint), technical knowledge, etc. Could split: Requirements (experience, education, authorization), Qualifications (maybe deep familiarity with FAR etc), Skills (Excel proficiency, communication). But we must not create sections with filler. We have substantive content for each. Let's attempt:
