Infrastructure & Support Costs

Abstract

The F-35 Joint Program Office equips U.S. and allied forces with operational F-35 weapon systems in support of military and national security operations. The acquisition and product support workforce provides cutting edge weapon systems, sustainment capabilities, and is charged with providing management, tools, and technical and business capabilities needed to oversee acquisition programs throughout their life cycle. The acquisition workforce funded in this program element will support development phases of acquisition programs to include material solution analysis, technology development, engineering and manufacturing development. This funding does not include costs for base operating support civilian personnel. This program element supports both civilian pay and non-pay support requirements. Additional infrastructure and program management support costs include travel, supplies, contractor support, off-base leases, program office IT, cybersecurity, model-based systems engineering, and risk reduction studies directly related to C2D2 development efforts. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY23, $63.6M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this project element, and in FY24, $67.1M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this project element.
