Financial Management Information Systems Development

Abstract

This program element develops upgrades to existing financial management information systems. These upgrades are required to comply with auditability and transparency requirements as well as enable efficiencies in processing financial transactions. This program element also supports studies and analysis to improve future program planning and execution. There are four projects within this program element: Program and Budget Enterprise Service (PBES), Cost Estimating Modeling (CEM), and Defense Enterprise Accounting and Management System (DEAMS) Increment 1 (Inc 1) and Increment 2 (Inc 2). PBES is a software development effort that will utilize a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to deliver budgeting and programming capability for the Air Force. PBES will replace legacy systems such as the Automated Budget Interactive Data Environment System (ABIDES) and the Resource Allocation Programming Information Decision System (RAPIDS) and will support the budget formulation and force programming process. CEM is a knowledge-based study effort to improve Air Force-wide cost estimating by analyzing cost data and recommending changes to estimating models, methods, and tools. DEAMS is the Air Force's target core accounting and financial management solution and is a key component of the long-term business process improvements needed to sustain auditability and correct financial system weaknesses. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
