Program Budget Enterprise Service (PBES)

Abstract

The Program and Budget Enterprise Service (PBES) is a software development effort that will utilize a service oriented architecture (SOA) to deliver budgeting and programming cpability for the United States Air Force (USAF). PBES will replace legacy systems such as 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. PBES is leveraging existing authoritative data sources to provide needed capability in four (4) incremental releases rather than a single release. Release capabilities are briefly described below. Release 1 - Creating the baseline, service top line receipt and allocation, and submission of Program Objective Memorandum (POM) and President's Budget (PB). Release 2 - Development of options after receiving the Service Top Line from OSD, as well as the integration of Resource Management Decisions (RMDs). The second release will also address integrating Congressional marks prior to execution year fund distribution. Release 3 - Air Force cost modeling processes for civilian and military personnel, flying hours, and force structure data management. Release 4 - capabilities include our justification book processes. The PBES system is being developed to deliver a flexible programming and budgeting system that can keep up with the constantly changing budget requirements. The PBES effort will be measured using established approved performance metrics which will create efficiencies and allow budget analysts more time to focus on analytical tasks aleviating manual entry, manual checks and balances, and greater flexibility which leads to the best decision making tools for leadership. The PBES requirement is authorized per the SAF/FM-approved 1 May 2013 PBES Problem Statement. Program funding for FY 2016 and beyond is deferred at this time. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning.
