What is the relationship between the PPB&E process, the
President's budget submission to Congress, and Congress's
Appropriations process? - ANSWER-• The Department submits a
two-year • The Department submits a two-year budget estimate
to OMB that becomes part of the President's budget request to
Congress for even-numbered fiscal years (e.g., the President's
Budget submitted to Congress in March 2015 contained the
Department's budget estimates and justification for FY 2016 and
FY 2017).
• In practice, Congress does not actually provide the Department
with a two-year appropriation. It only appropriates funds for the
first year. An amended budget justification must be submitted
for the second year of the original two-year request so
Congress will appropriate funds for that second year.
What roles do the Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR), POM, and
Future Years
, Defense Program (FYDP) play in the PPB&E process? -
ANSWER-• The QDR is a legislatively-mandated review of DoD
strategy and priorities. It sets the longterm course for the DoD
by assessing threats and challenges the nation faces and
rebalancing DoD's strategies, capabilities, and forces to address
today's conflicts and tomorrow's threats. The QDR serves as
input to the development of the DPG during the PPB&E planning
phase.
• The POM allows each DoD department and agency to describe,
in detail, its proposed budget for the next six years. It serves as
input to the Department's overall budget request, provided to
Congress as part of the President's budget request. The POM is
one of the primary outcomes of the PPB&E programming
phase.
• The FYDP summarizes forces, resources, and equipment
associated with DoD programs for six years (the current two
budgeted years plus four additional years). It is updated twice
during the PPB&E cycle: Once to reflect the services combined
in the POM submission, and again to reflect the President's
Budget submitted to Congress.
