• Conduct price analysis and determine fair and reasonable pricing; prepare sole source justifications (FAR 6.302-1) where applicable; document all analysis and procurement decisions in accordance with Federal and corporate standards.
• Maintain fully compliant procurement files, ensuring documentation meets all Government and internal audit requirements.
• Track and manage the status of open POs; communicate updates to internal stakeholders and resolve issues related to delivery, quality, or supplier performance.
• Coordinate with suppliers to follow up on overdue deliveries, resolve discrepancies, and support continuous improvement in supplier performance.
• Collaborate with Accounts Payable and Project Control Analysts to reconcile invoices, resolve discrepancies, and process PO modifications for credits, returns, or scope changes.
• Utilize Deltek Costpoint and other procurement systems to process requisitions, issue POs, track shipments, and maintain procurement records.
• Maintain effective communication with internal customers to ensure procurement actions align with program schedules and technical requirements.
• Support reporting requirements for procurement status, open actions, and compliance metrics to ASRC Federal Procurement leadership.

Team Management & Leadership

• Directly supervise and manage the procurement team, overseeing daily activities, assigning and prioritizing work, and ensuring procurement actions are completed on schedule and in compliance with FAR/DFARS and ASRC Federal policy.
• Manage and balance workload across the buying team by monitoring daily queues and progress, reallocating assignments as priorities shift, and keeping critical site deliveries on schedule - especially during peak procurement periods.
• Mentor and develop buying staff by setting expectations and performance standards, providing continuous feedback, and offering input to procurement leadership.
• Review procurement files to verify compliance with FAR, DFARS, contract requirements, and ASRC Federal internal policies and procedures.
• Train and guide new buyers, serving as the team’s primary point of escalation for procurement questions, issues, and day-to-day decision‑making.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in a related field or equivalent combination of education and experience.
• 4+ years of relevant procurement experience, including Federal procurement.
• 3-5 years of experience executing FAR-based purchases, including documentation, compliance, and audit‑ready file management.
