Program Wide Support
Abstract
Program Wide Support (PWS) contains non-headquarters management costs in support of MDA functions and activities across the entire BMDS. It Includes Government Civilians and Contract Support Services. This provides integrity and oversight of the BMDS as well as supports MDA in the development and evaluation of technologies that will respond to the changing threat. Additionally, PWS includes personnel to support global deployments performing deployment site preparation and activation, and provides facility capabilities for MDA Executing Agent locations. Other MDA wide costs include: physical and technical security; civilian drug testing; audit readiness; the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) program; legal services and settlements; travel and agency training; office, equipment, vehicle, and warehouse leases; utilities and base operations; data and unified communications support; supplies and maintenance; materiel and readiness and central property management of equipment; and similar operating expenses. PWS is allocated on a pro-rata basis across most Agency PEs and therefore fluctuates per PE by fiscal year based on the total Agency budget in that fiscal year.
