Contract Analyst - Commercial Items | Remote

Greater Phoenix Area • Posted 2 days ago
Remote Contract Engineering Services

The achievers and courageous challenge-crushers we seek, have the following characteristics and skills:

What You Will Do:

  • Receive and triage supplier commerciality assertions; validate submission completeness against FAR 2.101 criteria before work begins
  • Drive supplier interface — request salient characteristic data, commercial invoices, catalog/price lists, and sales history; escalate and track non-responsive suppliers against cycle-time commitments
  • Conduct independent market research to establish that a customary commercial market exists — commercial offerings, platform usage, comparable sources inside and outside the customer's supply base
  • Build the price analysis: adjust the similar-item sales history via price walk for form/fit/function differences, and document the basis for fair and reasonable pricing
  • Assemble the complete determination package — technical assessment, market evidence, price justification, and narrative — to customer format and audit standard
  • Maintain traceability and audit-ready documentation sufficient to withstand DCMA/DCAA review and customer internal audit
  • Report backlog status, cycle time, and supplier responsiveness metrics; flag assertions likely to fail early rather than late

What You Will Bring:

  • 5+ years in government contracts, subcontract administration, procurement compliance, or price/cost analysis in aerospace & defense
  • Working knowledge of FAR Part 12, FAR Part 15, FAR 2.101 commercial product/service definitions, TINA thresholds, and DFARS 212 commerciality determination requirements
  • Demonstrated experience with "of a type" / similar-to commerciality assertions and supporting evidence packages
  • Price analysis skills — comparability adjustments, sales history normalization, market-based price reasonableness
  • Direct supplier-facing experience; able to push a reluctant supplier for data without damaging the relationship
  • Strong technical writing; the narrative is the deliverable
  • U.S. person status; ability to obtain access to export-controlled data


Pay Range: $80,000 - $90,000 per year


Compensation decisions are made based on factors including experience, skills, education, and other job-related factors, in accordance with our internal pay structure. We also offer a comprehensive benefits package, including health insurance, paid time off, and retirement plan.
