Business Analyst I (DOC)

Savvee Inc. is seeking a detail-oriented Business Analyst I to support our federal client, DOC, onsite in Washington, D.C. The ideal candidate will excel at coordinating research, documentation, and case management activities to support the review and evaluation of industry-led AI technology export consortium proposals within a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

This individual should be skilled at maintaining accurate records, tracking review milestones and stakeholder inputs, and providing analytical and administrative support that enables informed Government decision-making while ensuring compliance with established program processes.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS

• Conducting research and organizing proposal materials and supporting evidence by review area.
• Building and maintaining the evidence index (source, location, version, and applicable criterion) for each proposal so findings can be validated without reconstructing the submission.
• Supporting completeness reviews by populating the requirement-level completeness matrix (criterion, cited evidence, assessment, deficiency or question, recommended next step) and supporting compliance reviews and analytical documentation for Government consideration within timeframes that support the 14-business-day window.
• Supporting substantive reviews by assembling evidence on consortium structure, ownership and control information, full-stack technology package descriptions, and national interest statements.
• Distinguishing applicant assertions from corroborated information and flag discrepancies, unsupported claims, and information gaps.
• Maintaining controlled case records, version control, source documentation, review status, milestones, open questions, dependencies, and pending actions for each assigned proposal and running targeted impact checks when new or revised submissions arrive.
• Maintaining case management and tracking records (proposal status, review milestones, dependencies, pending actions, deficiencies, interagency inputs, risks, and matters requiring Government decision) and supporting its bi-weekly reconciliation and quality control.
• Tracking interagency stakeholder inputs, deficiencies, dependencies, clarification requests, and follow-up actions through closure and tying each stakeholder comment to the relevant proposal element or issue and recording its disposition.
• Inputting and maintaining Government-designated proposal tracking and document management systems accurately and on time.
• Preparing recurring documentation, status summaries, analytical inputs, and drafting applicant-facing correspondence (e.g., requests for clarification) for Government review; contractor personnel do not independently communicate Government determinations to applicants.
• Supporting development of bi-weekly status reports and monthly status and cost progress reports, including accomplishments, planned activities, staffing/clearance status, issues, and risks.
• Supporting meeting preparation, attendance, minutes, and action-item tracking for Government and interagency meetings and completing follow-up actions by established deadlines.
• Applying business analysis, technical analysis, process improvement, knowledge management, configuration management, and strategic planning skills to document and improve SOPs, checklists, templates, and review procedures.
• Capturing recurring clarification needs, process gaps, and improvement opportunities observed during reviews.
• Supporting change management, training, and knowledge transfer activities, including transition-in/transition-out and Program administration tasks as directed.
