CACI’s Acquisition Support Group (ASG). CACI’s ASG supports several U.S. Government procurement organizations, providing contract specialist, procurement analyst, source selection expertise, program management, and acquisition automation support (e.g., CACI is the company that owns/administers SPS PD2). We have over 100 contracting/acquisition/procurement professionals onboard, about 85% of which are prior GS-1102’s or military acquisition/contracting professionals, now working as contractors in Government contracting offices and program offices.
We currently have opportunities available in the Washington, D.C. Metro Area, Afghnistan, and Qatar. Given the current shortages in the GS-1102 career field we could potentially have future needs anywhere there are GS-1102’s.
Educational, experience, and certification requirements vary, but most positions start at an Associate’s degree, including at least 24 hours of business-related courses, 3-10 years of progressively responsible experience as a Contract Specialist/Officer within a U.S. government procurement organization, and qualification/certification at DAWIA/FAC-C level I, II, or III in Contracting. The ability to apply principles and language of FAR, DFARS, and prevailing local government regulations is essential. Proficiency in the use of at least one automated procurement system in use by the Government (e.g., SPS PD2, Comprizon, CompuSearch, Momentum, Prism, etc.) is desirable, and may be required, for some positions.
