OT/CSO Execution SME

ASI Government•Norfolk, VA

6d•Onsite

About The Position

ASI Government is building a team of Other Transaction (OT) and Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) practitioners to support NAVSUP’s new acquisition innovation pilot office in Norfolk, Virginia. This is hands-on, ground-floor work: you will sit shoulder-to-shoulder with NAVSUP contracting officers and program personnel on live requirements, helping the Navy move faster and get capability into the hands of the fleet by using flexible, non-FAR acquisition pathways where they make sense. Two OT/CSO Execution SMEs are needed to embed with the pilot office and help prove out this new capability from the ground up.

Requirements

Demonstrated hands-on experience executing Other Transaction Agreements and/or Commercial Solutions Openings — tactical execution experience, not solely policy-level or academic knowledge.
Working familiarity with the statutory basis for OT and CSO authority and their implementing guidance.
Experience supporting the full acquisition lifecycle, from solicitation development through award and post-award administration.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills; comfortable working directly with contracting officers, program managers, and technical stakeholders in a fast-moving environment.
Active Secret clearance required at time of hire.
Ability to work onsite at the Naval Shipyard in Norfolk, VA.

Nice To Haves

Experience with other non-FAR acquisition approaches (e.g., Broad Agency Announcements, SBIR/STTR, cooperative agreements).
DAWIA Contracting certification (or equivalent), FAC-C, or FAC-COR credentials.
Prior experience supporting Navy or NAVSUP acquisition programs.
Experience helping stand up or pilot a new acquisition capability within a government organization.

Responsibilities

Work directly with NAVSUP contracting officers and program personnel on real, active requirements.
Help determine when an OT, a CSO, or another non-FAR approach is the right acquisition vehicle for a given requirement.
Develop CSO solicitations, evaluation approaches, agreements, and supporting documentation.
Provide hands-on guidance across the full agreement lifecycle: solicitation, evaluation, negotiation, award, and administration.
Capture lessons learned from the Norfolk pilot to inform NAVSUP’s broader OT/CSO capability and the institutional guidance being built at NAVSUP Headquarters.
Serve as a trusted, on-the-ground advisor as NAVSUP works through real acquisition challenges in real time.
