Program-Wide Support
Abstract
Program-Wide Support (PWS) contains non-headquarters management costs in support of MDA functions and activities across the entire Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS). Includes Government Civilians, Advisory and Assistance Services, and Federally Funded Research and Development Contracts (FFRDC) positions supporting MDA in enabling the development and evaluation of technologies that will respond to the changing threat and to maintain integrity and oversight of the BMDS. Other costs included provide facility capabilities for MDA Executing Agent locations (with the exception of Federal Office Building 2 after FY 2011), such as physical and technical security, legal services, travel and agency training, office and equipment leases, rents and utilities, data and unified communications support, supplies and maintenance, and similar operating expenses. Also includes legal settlements, and foreign currency fluctuations on a limited number of foreign contracts. In keeping with congressional intent, PWS is allocated among the PEs on a pro-rata basis and therefore fluctuates by year based on the total MDA budget and the individual PE`s budget amount. The budget project in this PE did not exist in program wide support in FY2010.
