Job Overview
The Mid-Level Subcontracts Administrator supports cradle-to-grave subcontract administration for U.S. Government prime contracts in a high‑compliance, CPSR‑intensive environment. The role is responsible for executing compliant subcontract files, supporting competition and source‑selection documentation, performing price/cost analysis support, drafting and administering subcontract instruments and modifications, and maintaining audit‑ready documentation in accordance with company purchasing procedures and applicable FAR/DFARS requirements. This position produces complete, well‑organized, and defensible files that withstand internal reviews and CPSR scrutiny, including clear documentation of fair and reasonable pricing and the principal elements of negotiated agreements. The role offers a remote or flexible hybrid work environment.

Review procurement packages to confirm scope alignment, required approvals, and completeness of supporting documentation before award

Prepare and/or support price analysis and cost analysis documentation and ensure the file includes a clear basis for fair and reasonable pricing determinations
Draft and complete negotiation documentation (as required), ensuring the file captures the principal elements of the negotiated agreement and the data/logic used to support outcomes
Assist with subcontract type selection and risk considerations consistent with the requirement and prime contract flowdown posture
Support Government "Consent to Subcontract" / pre‑award notification package preparation when required by contract or CO direction
Subcontract Award / Issuance
Draft, negotiate (as delegated), and issue subcontracts, purchase orders, and task releases using approved templates/terms and conditions, ensuring inclusion of all applicable flow‑downs and requirements
Coordinate internal reviews (peer, management, legal, program) and ensure all required approvals are documented in the file prior to execution
Support diligence checks and documentation (e.g., SAM exclusion checks where required by procedure) and maintain evidence in the file
Post‑Award Administration
Administer subcontract performance: funding/ceiling tracking, deliverables, compliance obligations, and issue resolution support with program, finance/AP, and vendors
Process subcontract modifications/changes (administrative and substantive), ensuring updated terms, flow‑downs, and file documentation remain audit‑ready
Support receipt/acceptance documentation collection and coordination with receiving/AP to maintain a complete payment trail as part of the procurement record
Support subcontract closeout activities, ensuring the file contains required closeout evidence and is retained per record retention requirements
Purchasing File Integrity (Audit‑Ready at All Times)
Maintain complete subcontract files in the company's designated repository (e.g., SharePoint/secure drive) consistent with applicable file checklists and access controls
Ensure files contain required backup documentation (e.g., quotes, analyses, negotiation memos, approvals, invoices/receiving evidence as applicable) and meet retention requirements
Maintain documentation in a manner that supports traceability from requisition through award, administration, and closeout
CPSR Readiness, Internal Reviews, and Corrective Actions
Participate in pre‑award and post‑award quality reviews as required (including peer reviews and management reviews at designated thresholds) and implement resulting corrective actions
Support annual purchasing system self‑audits/internal reviews and provide evidence packages, file extracts, and remediation artifacts as requested
Maintain supplier/subcontractor performance documentation where required (including periodic evaluations per procedure) and file evidence of checks prior to award
Required Qualifications
Experience: Typically, 3–6 years of subcontract administration / procurement experience supporting federal government contracts in a compliance‑driven environment; demonstrated success supporting CPSR‑style file expectations (documentation quality, consistency, traceability)
Regulatory knowledge: Working knowledge of FAR/DFARS subcontracting concepts (competition, file documentation, price/cost analysis support, flow‑downs, consent to subcontract concepts)
Documentation strength: Ability to produce clear, defensible file narratives (price reasonableness, negotiation support, decision rationale)
Tools: Proficiency with MS Office (Excel/Word/Outlook/Teams), Cost Point, and experience working in an ERP/procurement system and controlled file repository environment
