  • Exercise Design and Facilitation

  • Plan, design, and support the execution of exercises, simulations, and scenario-based learning events when directed by the Government.
  • Manage development of exercise objectives, materials, and participant roles, and facilitate after-action reviews to capture lessons learned and performance insights.
  • Maintain readiness to reinitiate or expand exercise activities in support of evolving customer mission needs.
  • Stakeholder Coordination and Reporting

  • Serve as the primary liaison to the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR), Technical Point of Contact (TPOC), and other Government stakeholders for all Task 3 matters.
  • Provide accurate and timely reporting on training throughput, satisfaction scores, risks, and corrective actions.
  • Contribute to monthly status reports, Service Level Agreement metrics, and Award Fee evaluations by highlighting achievements, efficiencies, and innovations within Task 3
