Abstract

The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) system is a strategic planning process for allocating resources among the military departments, defense agencies, and other components. The process serves as a framework for DOD civilian and military leaders to decide which programs to fund based on strategic objectives and produces the departments portion of the Presidents annual budget request. In FY2022, Congress created a commission to study the effectiveness of the process in view of concerns over the pace at which the U.S. military is fielding commercially driven advances in software and other emerging technologiessuch as hypersonic weapons, artificial intelligence, and 5Gmobile technologiesrelative to China and other strategic competitors.
