Senior Project Analyst

About Lucayan Technology Solutions LLC

Lucayan Technology Solutions LLC is a Tampa-based federal IT and professional services prime contractor. We are SBA 8(a) certified, service-disabled veteran-owned and HUBZone certified, and we deliver for Department of Defense and civilian agency customers. Our PMO keeps every contract on schedule, compliant and on the record.

About the role

The Senior Project Analyst owns contract administration for a portfolio of government contracts and sets the standard for the PMO. You know what each contract requires of us, you make sure we deliver it, and you catch problems before the customer does. You also guide and review the work of Project Analysts and act as the PMO’s point of contact for program managers, finance, subcontractors, and government customers.

What you'll do

• Own the contract file and obligations for an assigned portfolio: read the contract, task order and every modification, and track what each one requires of Lucayan, with the clause or paragraph behind it.

• Plan and track deliverables, milestones, staffing and risks across several contracts, and report status to program managers and the PMO Manager.

• Review monthly status reports and other customer deliverables for accuracy and compliance before they go to the government.

• Administer subcontracts: statements of work, flow-down clauses, subcontractor invoices and performance, and the small business subcontracting limits that apply to our set-aside work.

• Work with Finance on invoicing, burn rate, funding and period-of-performance tracking, and contract-level cost and profit reporting.

• Track contract vehicle compliance: required reports, fee remittance, option periods, certifications and renewals across our contract vehicles and joint ventures.

• Support contract modifications, option exercises and recompete or transition planning with the PMO Manager and Business Development.

• Mentor and review the work of Project Analysts, and help improve PMO templates, trackers, and processes.

• Help run the PMO’s tooling, including contract records, reporting and document control in SharePoint.

• Raise schedule, staffing, funding and compliance risks early, with a recommended fix.

Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor’s degree in business, management, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

• Experience managing deliverables and status reporting on more than one contract at a time.

• Strong written and verbal communication, including writing and reviewing reports for government readers.

• Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Microsoft Teams and SharePoint, including document libraries, version control and permissions.
