j PPB&E Stands for - Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution
The most significant output of the PPBE process is - the funding proposed to be included in the
President's Budget (PB).
The president has a statutory requirement to submit the budget to Congress by - the first Monday in
February
The ultimate objective of the DOD budget is to provide - Combatant Commanders (CCMDRs) with the
optimal mix of forces, equipment, and support
The purpose of the Planning phase - is to assess the DOD strategy and capabilities required to counter
threats to national security and to document these in the Defense Planning Guidance (DPG).
the output of the Planning phase is - the Defense Planning Guidance (DPG).
the Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) contains - planning and programming guidance to the DOD
Components to guide development of the Program Objectives Memorandum (POM).
The Planning phase is led by - the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy
Planning is informed by strategic documents, to include: - the National Security Strategy (NSS), the
National Defense Strategy (NDS), and the National Military Strategy (NMS).
Programming is the process - that matches available dollars against a prioritized list of requirements to
develop a five- year resource proposal called a Program Objectives Memorandum (POM).
Programming is the bridge between - planning (with broad fiscal guidance) and budgeting (which
meticulously prices each program element).
The Programming Phase is led by - the OSD Director, Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (CAPE)
The final product of the programming process within DOD is - a Program Objectives Memorandum
(POM).
The purpose of the Budgeting phase is to - produce a DOD budget request that can be effectively
defended before Congress
Components support the budgeting phase by translating the first year of their POM into - a Budget
Estimate Submission (BES)
The Budgeting phase is led by - the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller).
, The Execution phase involves - the apportionment and allocation of budget authority to DOD
Components to execute their programs
Throughout the Execution phase, DOD Components conduct - reviews to determine how well
programming and financing have met joint warfighting needs
The FYDP is usually updated - twice each year: normally in August/September to reflect the Components'
Program and Budget Review submission
PPB&E provides - DoD's portion of the funding proposal the President submits to Congress. Congress is
the final approval for budgetary authority.
The QDR was replaced was replaced by the - National Defense Strategy. NDS is one of the guiding
documents in the PPB&E to create the POM. The POM reflects the DoD's need for resourcing over five-
years, knows as the Future Years Defense Program
The Risk Management Process Risk management is a five-step process that provides a framework for
collecting and evaluating information to: - • Assess assets (identify value of asset and degree of impact if
asset is damaged or lost)
• Assess threats (type and degree of threat)
• Assess vulnerabilities (identification and extent of vulnerabilities)
• Assess risks (calculation of risks)
• Determine countermeasures (security countermeasure options that can reduce or mitigate risks cost
effectively
The Risk Management Process Step 1 - Assess Assets --The first step in the risk management process is to
- identify and assess your organization's assets. This first step determines the value of each asset and
prioritizes the asset based upon the consequence of loss
An asset is - anything of value or importance to the organization or an adversary, such as people,
computers, buildings or strategic advantages.
Step 1 focuses only on assets that are - are worthy of protection and are most important to your
organization and the national security of the United States
Assets can be assigned to one of five categories: - • People
• Information
• Equipment
• Facilities
• Activities & Operations
What is used to determine significant assets? - A variety of resources, including reports, databases and
equipment documentation, assist in determining significant assets. However, the best information is
attained through a series of interviews with knowledgeable personnel or subject matter experts (SMEs),
