• Serve as an internal resource on OTA, FAR, DFARS, and other applicable federal acquisition regulations and contracting types, advising teams on compliance requirements, flow-down clauses, and contractual obligations.
• Support the drafting, review, and negotiation of government-facing agreements, NDAs, teaming agreements, and contract modification requests in coordination with the applicable internal stakeholders and counsel.
• Track and manage contract deliverables, reporting obligations, representations and certifications, and key dates, escalating risks and deadlines proactively.
• Coordinate responses to government requests, contract audits, and inquiries, and support related compliance matters in partnership with the legal team.
• Monitor new and proposed laws, regulations, and policy changes affecting government contracting and assess their potential impact on current and future company contracts.
