Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) Process Research : George Mason University , February , 2024
From the executive summary: “Numerous processes have developed around Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) since its introduction in the 1960s. Most of those are directed by policy, while statutes and regulations identify roles and responsibilities for key personnel and organizations. Other processes are simply a matter of practice that has developed over time. Most processes are internal to the Department of Defense (DoD) and could be adjusted to improve flexibility. To assess the possibilities, the Acquisition Innovation Research Center (AIRC) conducted research and analysis on the following process issues: 2.1: Assess whether the PPBE process should be the same for programs that breach the Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) threshold (10 USC 4201), Major Systems threshold (10 USC 2302d), and non-major systems, and make recommendations. 2.2: In addition to MDAPs, examine how the DoD (includes Military Departments and Agencies) uses acquisition pathways such as the Software Pathway and Middle-Tier Acquisition within the PPBE process and make recommendations. 2.3: Analyze the legal foundations that drive PPBE and develop a matrix outlining how PPBE components are directed, whether by statute, regulation, policy, or practice.”
