What is the purpose of the Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPB&E) process? - ANSWER-• The PPB&E process is how DoD allocates its resources. It is how DoD and its contractors manage to stay within their fiscal budget while following Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) policy, strategy, and goals. What are the major outcomes of the Planning stage of the PPB&E process? - ANSWER-• Office of the Secretary of Defense •• (OSD) and Joint Staff collaboratively articulate resource-informed national defense policies and military strategy - the Strategic Planning Guidance (SPG).

  • The SPG serves as input to an enhanced planning process. This process results in a set of budget conscious priorities for program development - the Defense/Joint Programming Guidance (DPG).
  • The Joint Planning Guidance (JPG) serves as the link between the planning and programming phases of the PPB&E process. What are the major outcomes of the Programming stage of the PPB&E process? - ANSWER-Programming
  • In this PPB&E phase, each DoD department and agency develops a POM (Program Objective Memorandum) that describes, in detail, their proposed budget for the next six years. Each POM balances program budgets as set in the DPG.
  • OSD and Joint Staff then review each POM and integrate them all into an overall coherent Defense program. OSD and Joint Staff also propose alternatives and/or marginally adjust budgets to address shortfalls or any issues with any portion of any POM.
  • SECDEF then settles any unresolved issues and writes them up in a Program Decision Memorandum (PDM). What are the major outcomes of the Budgeting stage of the PPB&E process? - ANSWER-• Budgeting happens at the same time as programming.
  • Each DoD department and agency submits a budget estimate along with its POM.
  • Each DoD department and agency also translates its budget estimate for the next two years into the Congressional appropriation structure format, and then submits it.
  • Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) analysts review the submissions to ensure program funding matches current policy, they are priced right, and are justified to Congress.
  • Budget review hearings are conducted to address analysts' questions.
  • After budget review hearings, each analyst then prepares a Program Budget Decision (PBD) for each program that proposes financial adjustments to address issues or problems identified during the hearing.
  • The PBD then goes to SECDEF for a decision. The decision goes in an updated budget submission to OMB.
  • Finally, the overall DoD budget is provided as part of the President's Budget request to Congress. What are the major outcomes of the Execution stage of the PPB&E process? - ANSWER-• The execution review occurs at the same time as the program and budget reviews.

tomorrow's threats. The QDR serves as input to the development of the DPG during the PPB&E planning phase.

  • The POM allows each DoD department and agency to describe, in detail, its proposed budget for the next six years. It serves as input to the Department's overall budget request, provided to Congress as part of the President's budget request. The POM is one of the primary outcomes of the PPB&E programming phase.
  • The FYDP summarizes forces, resources, and equipment associated with DoD programs for six years (the current two budgeted years plus four additional years). It is updated twice during the PPB&E cycle: Once to reflect the services combined in the POM submission, and again to reflect the President's Budget submitted to Congress. Describe what occurs during the even 8. Describe what occurs during the even and odd years of the five-year PPB&E process. - ANSWER-• During "on years" (even FY), the Department submits a two- year budget estimate to OMB, which becomes part of the President's budget request to Congress.
  • During the "off years" (odd FY), the Department submits an amended budget justification for the second year of the original two-year request to Congress. How do you get information about resources necessary to implement the Area Commander's decision into the PPB&E process? - ANSWER-• Through the POM.
