Program Manager - Fort Rucker Aviation Maintenance Services; FRAM II

Overview

This position is Contingent Upon Contract Award. Working across the globe, V2X builds smart solutions designed to integrate physical and digital infrastructure from base to battlefield. We bring 120 years of successful mission support to improve security, streamline logistics, and enhance readiness. Aligned around a shared purpose, our $3.9B company and 16,000 people work alongside our clients, here and abroad, to tackle their most complex challenges with integrity, respect, responsibility, and professionalism.

The Program Manager (PM) serves as the single point of accountability and leadership for overall execution of the Fort Rucker Aviation Maintenance Services (FRAM II) Contract Logistics Support (CLS) program following transition. The PM collaborates closely with the designated FRAM II Transition Manager to ensure a coordinated, low-risk assumption of operations, while maintaining clear separation of responsibilities whereby the Transition Manager retains direct responsibility for transition execution.

V2X, under the PM’s leadership, maintains full aviation maintenance and sustainment support for the UH-72 Lakota fleet prior to and throughout the divestment and transition-out period, ensuring aircraft availability, safety, and training continuity until Government-directed disposition actions are complete. Upon completion of transition, the PM assumes full responsibility for steady-state CLS performance across all supported platforms, while ensuring uninterrupted aviation training support to the Army Aviation Center of Excellence (AvCOE).

• Partner with the FRAM II Capture Manager to shape the overall Program Management, Execution Approach, and technical volumes, ensuring alignment between proposed technical solutions, staffing models, performance metrics, and long-term contract sustainability.
• Lead development of the Program Management, Organizational Structure, Governance, and Performance Management sections of the proposal.
• Validate that proposed maintenance, supply chain, quality, safety, and subcontractor strategies are operationally executable within cost, schedule, and regulatory constraints.
• Collaborate with the Transition Manager to ensure seamless integration between the Transition Approach and steady-state CLS execution plan.
• Work closely with pricing, contracts, HR, supply chain, IT, property, and platform SMEs to ensure labor ramp profiles, indirect support structures, and management controls are realistic and performance driven.
• Participate in solutioning sessions and Black Hat reviews to assess incumbent performance risks, staffing considerations, Lakota divestment complexities, and green fleet sustainment demands.
• Support color team reviews (Pink, Red, Gold), incorporating evaluator-focused refinements and ensuring compliance with FRAM II PWS and Section L/M requirements.
• Ensure proposed KPIs, aircraft availability metrics, readiness thresholds, safety controls, and reporting structures are measurable, contract-aligned, and executable from Day One.
• Maintain strict traceability between proposal commitments and post-award management processes to minimize performance risk and protect the potential award fee.
• Upon award, ensure rapid conversion of proposal artifacts into executable program management baselines, including staffing plans, governance boards, reporting cadences, and risk registers.

• Collaborate with the FRAM II Transition Manager, providing program-level oversight, coordination, and governance to ensure transition activities align with contractual requirements, Army priorities, and long-term sustainment objectives.
• Participate in transition planning reviews, risk assessments, and Government coordination forums while not serving as the executing authority for transition tasks.
• Ensure transition outputs (personnel, processes, systems, and data) are fully integrated into steady-state program operations at transition completion.
• Serve as a continuity lead to ensure seamless handoff from transition to steady-state execution with no degradation to aviation training operations.

• Direct CLS execution for rotary-wing aircraft supporting Initial Entry Rotary Wing (IERW) and advanced aviation training, including:
• UH-60 Black Hawk
• CH-47 Chinook
• AH-64 Apache
• UH-72 Lakota (full sustainment prior to and during divestment)
• Ensure aircraft availability, mission capability rates, and training sortie requirements are met or exceeded across all platforms.
• Oversee aircraft launch and recovery operations, scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, phase inspections, modifications, corrosion control programs, and back shop component repairs.
• Integrate maintenance and supply operations to minimize aircraft downtime and parts backorders.
• Ensure compliance with all Quality Management System (QMS) program requirements including ISO 900, AS 9110C, and FAA Part 145 requirements.
