Exploring a New Defense Resource Management System : Institute for Defense Analyses , April , 2023
From the executive summary: “This paper offers defense leaders choices for changing the Defense Department’s Planning, Programming, and Budgeting System (PPBS) to meet the new needs of national security. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has vigorously criticized the current system for being unwieldy in today’s less-predictable defense environment. The Secretary has offered the corporate financial management model as a guiding paradigm for upgrading the PPBS. Yet many knowledgeable observers believe the business approach doesn’t fit. The qualitative differences between corporate and national security institutions are simply too large for the direct application of the business paradigm. Still, there is much in business practice that should arguably be applied.”
