Planning, Programming, and Budgeting System (PPBS)/Multi-year Programming: Reading Guide

Abstract

This Reading Guide addresses defense planning, programming, and budgeting system (PPBS)/resource management practices worldwide. It supports the DOD Defense Resource Management Studies (DRMS) program that assists U.S. security partners worldwide in improving their defense resource management capabilities. Intended uses of the Reading Guide include identifying "international best practices" for defense resource management and providing DRMS country teams with reference information. The objective was to capture the concepts, principles, and practices of PPBS/resource management-as they were originally established and as they have evolved. For each publication in the guide, we developed "annotated citations" - brief commentaries providing bibliographic information (author's name, document title, etc.); the authors' credentials and purpose of the publication; a description and evaluation of the contents; and recommendations on the publications' utility to users of the Reading Guide. The initial document search yielded more than 185 publications. Of that total, 35 percent were included in this guide. The Reading Guide will be a "living document," that is, updated periodically to incorporate new publications and older material we may have missed during development of this first edition.
