Government contract management is a booming field.
The ongoing need for trained, qualified contract managers for government clients has presented contractors and state, local and federal employees with unprecedented career opportunities. The scope of Villanova’s government contract management course includes federal aquisition regulations, procurement, ethics and government property, which allows for greater control over spending and implementing better contracting processes. Villanova University is recognized worldwide as a leader in online professional education. According to Villanova the average salary of Certified Contract Managers is $102,000. According to me this salary will grow dramatically in the next couple of years. Congress Daily stated that a reduced acquisition and contracting workforce was unable to handle a surge in contracts from $154 billion in fiscal 2001 to $390 billion last year. It more than doubled in the last 9 years. This is more than an average of 10% per year.
As long as companies are involved in large, time consuming implementations, projects without a realistic contractual visibility, costs will increase, the contractual visibility (read:transparanty) will be poor and the contracual complexity will increase dramatically. Oh…..there will be more global contracts as well………..The combination between skills (e.g. Villanova University) and our successful proven Contract Management solution Contracked is key in today’s business.
