Duties
The Purchasing Specialist will serve the National Security Space Institute as the Commandant's primary advisor on all acquisition matters affecting the Institute's academic mission. The NSSI's Purchasing Specialist serves primarily as the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). He/she will independently coordinate with the NSSI's contract provider, currently the General Services Administration's (GSA) Denver and Washington offices, to secure, oversee, evaluate, and administer a 90-person, $18M Faculty Support Contract, and a 2-person, $2M Financial Management Support Contract, respectively. A contract-reliant organization, the NSSI currently offers 22 courses to Space Professionals from the US Department of Defense and 56 international partner nations. These courses are offered on Peterson Space Force Base, a contract-provided commercial campus in downtown Colorado Springs, and via distance learning and Mobile Education Teams. The NSSI produced 7,100 graduates in FY23 and is projected to turn out more than 10,000 graduates in 2024. As a contract-dependent organization, effective, efficient, flexible contracts are key to the NSSI's mission success, and the Institute's Purchasing Specialist is a lynchpin in securing and maintaining the contracts that make the NSSI the DoD's center of excellence for space education.
