Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience which includes: maintaining a program for operation, maintenance, repair, and improvement of facilities; assisting in the preparation of contracts and cost estimates for requested work; and providing guidance to personnel on policies and procedures. This definition of specialized experience is typical of work performed at the next lower grade/level position in the Federal service, GS-09.

Combination of Education and Experience: A combination of education and experience may be used to qualify for this position as long as the computed percentage of the requirements is at least 100%. To compute the percentage of the requirements, divide your total months of experience by 12.
