Contract Management

Contract Administration

What is the biggest pain point during the contract administration process? Program offices want their product or service within the timing and cost constraints of their project. To meet program office expectations requires a combination of art and science. Procurement offices are constrained with a shortage of resources. Our team of qualified professionals provide acumen and technical skill to ensure requirements flow through the acquisition life cycle in a smooth and predictable manner.

Why hire an external company to do this? Our services offer flexibility, agility, and a broad candidate pool of specialists. Our focus is this precise profession. Our team consists of experienced procurement professionals who are certified to conduct the necessary activities across the acquisition life cycle. We provide pre-award, post-award, and contract operations support to government and commercial clients, freeing in-house contracting officers to focus their efforts where they are needed most.

  • Preparation is necessary in any worthwhile endeavor. Finding the right vendor to help you compete more effectively is no different. It begins with defining the requirement. We work with your stakeholders to specifically define the products and services you need to run your business or to compete in the marketplace.

    As the requirement is being defined, we perform formal due diligence to identify what is usual and customary in the marketplace. This market research helps to identify the right vendor to meet your needs. Acquisition Experts also prepares documentation to meet all contracting policy and regulatory contracting requirements in your particular environment.

  • After a contract is let, ongoing management is required. Ensuring that the service defined in the contract matches the service delivered requires managing the contract closely post-award. As a partner, Acquisition Experts does this for you.

    Additionally, the need to modify a contract after performance begins is fairly common. If conditions or the requirement changes in the course of our post-award contract monitoring, we draft modifications to ensure performance continues to meet your business needs. Finally, we work with your finance team to ensure the contract accounting is reconciled every step of the way.

  • If your organization has a team that serves as the hub of all contract actions, acquisition and contract management can sometimes seem overwhelming. We alleviate these pressures by supplementing your contract operations section or, alternately, augmenting your program office staff.

    Within contract operations teams, Acquisition Experts has helped by:

    · Developing requirements and the subsequent Performance Work Statement (PWS).

    · Developing customized tools to track the breadth of contracts and spending by office, organization, program, etc.

    · Helping contracting shops meet the expectations of program office teams.

    We also work with key stakeholders in other functional areas, ensuring effective communication and coordination is taking place to track performance across your contracts.
