Contract - 12 Months

experienced IT Sourcing & RFP Specialist Sr contractor to provide specialized procurement support with a focus on complex information technology acquisitions. This contractor will manage end-to-end IT RFP and sourcing activities—including software, SaaS, infrastructure, professional services, and managed services—while senior procurement staff are engaged on key organizational transformation initiatives. The contractor is expected to operate independently, apply deep IT vendor market knowledge, and deliver high-quality procurement outcomes with minimal direction. Equally critical to success in this role is the ability to communicate effectively and tactfully across diverse business domains and stakeholder groups—including IT, legal, finance, operations, and executive leadership. The contractor must be adept at navigating competing priorities, managing expectations, and building trust across organizational boundaries, ensuring that procurement activities remain aligned with business objectives even in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.

Job Responsibilities:

  • Lead end-to-end RFP/RFQ processes for complex IT procurements including enterprise software, SaaS platforms, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity solutions, managed services, and professional IT services
  • Develop comprehensive RFP documentation including scope of work, technical requirements, evaluation criteria, SLAs, and KPIs in collaboration with IT stakeholders and legal counsel
  • Manage full competitive sourcing lifecycle: requirements gathering, RFP issuance, Q&A management, vendor response evaluation, down-selection, and contract award recommendation
  • Facilitate cross-functional evaluation teams across IT, legal, finance, security, and business units to assess vendor proposals against technical and commercial criteria
  • Conduct detailed total cost of ownership (TCO) and economic analyses to support sourcing decisions and executive-level recommendations
  • Lead complex IT contract negotiations independently, including software license agreements, SaaS subscriptions, cloud service agreements, professional services agreements, and maintenance & support contracts
  • Draft and negotiate SLAs, KPIs, data security provisions, IP ownership clauses, and terms & conditions in coordination with legal counsel and IT security teams
  • Prepare executive-level presentations summarizing negotiation strategies, vendor comparisons, risk assessments, and contract award recommendations
  • Manage contract execution through signature and transition to contract administration, ensuring all documentation is complete and archived
  • Build and manage relationships with IT vendors and system integrators, including structured vendor performance reviews (QBRs) coordination.
  • Identify and qualify new IT vendors through competitive reviews, financial analysis, security assessments, and reference checks
  • Monitor contracted IT suppliers for SLA adherence, issue escalation, and corrective action management
  • Actively drive cost reduction and value optimization initiatives across the IT supplier portfolio
  • Support ERCOT’s Vendor Qualification process for IT vendors in collaboration with IT security, legal, credit, and business owners
  • Manage a portfolio of IT contracts and purchases in excess of $20MM annually
  • Serve as day-to-day procurement point of contact for IT business units, triaging sourcing requests and advising on procurement pathways and contract strategy
  • Review and approve requisitions in the ERP system to ensure required documentation is present and compliant
  • Maintain timely and accurate updates to contract databases reflecting the status of all active IT contract requests
  • Coordinate with IT project managers to develop statements of work that clearly define scope, deliverables, acceptance criteria, and vendor obligations
  • Generate procurement reports and dashboards as requested by IT leadership and procurement management
  • Help coordinate with internal customers during all stages of RFQ/RFP development including scheduling and facilitating vendor meetings
