Rapid Prototyping Research Center (RPRC)
Subcontracts Administrator
The George Mason University Rapid Prototyping Research Center
(RPRC), within the College of Engineering and Computing (CEC),
invites applications for a Subcontracts Administrator. George Mason
University has a strong institutional commitment to the achievement
of excellence and diversity among its faculty and staff, and
strongly encourages candidates to apply who will enrich Mason's
academic and culturally inclusive environment.
About the Position:
The successful candidate will have the responsibility to support
Mason's Rapid Prototyping Research Center (RPRC) by managing the
subcontracts and subcontractors under the portfolio of contract
vehicles being utilized by the RPRC.
About the Department:
The Rapid Prototyping Research Center (RPRC)
(https://rprc.gmu.edu/) focuses on providing its Department of
Defense (DOD) sponsors a unique perspective on rapid prototyping
that aligns with Section 804 in the Fiscal Year 2017 National
Defense Authorization Act. Specifically, rather than developing a
new system to satisfy intractable problems on the battlefield, RPRC
integrates new technology into existing infrastructure. This unique
approach reduces acquisition costs since the sustainment tail is in
place. It also reduces the time to field intractable solutions to
the battlefield from 10-14 years down to 1-3 years, and provides
assurance that the prototype involved is integrated with the latest
technology; not dated technology due to lengthy acquisition
delivery timelines.
Responsibilities:
Day to day responsibility includes managing a portfolio of
subcontracts and subcontractors to ensure compliance on multiple
contract vehicles, and include but are not limited to the tasks and
duties below.
