(U) This project provides support in three basic areas: personnel and related support costs; funding to meet fluctuation costs and contract terminations; and assistance required to fund support service contracts.
(U) Personnel and related support costs common to all BMDO projects include support of the Office of the Director, Ballistic Missile Defense Organization and his staff located within the Washington, D.C. area, as well as BMDO's Executing Agents within the US Army Space & Strategic Defense Command, U.S. Army PEO Missile Defense, U.S. Navy PEO for Theater Defense, U.S. Air Force PEO office, and the National Test Facility. This project supports funding for overhead/indirect personnel costs, benefits, and infrastructure costs such as rents, utilities, supplies, etc.
(U) The BMDO prioritizes funding within this project to meet operational, contractual, and statutory fiscal requirements. Operational requirements include reimbursable services acquired through the Defense Business Operating Fund (DBOF), such as accounting services provided by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS). Contractual requirements include reserves for special termination costs on designated contracts and provisions for terminating other programs as required. BMDO has additional requirements to provide for foreign currency fluctuations on its limited number of foreign contracts. Finally, statutory requirements include funding for charges to cancelled appropriations in accordance with Public Law 101-510.
(U) Assistance required to support BMDO overhead management functions is contained in this project. This assistance ranges from operational contracts to fully support functions such as ADP operations, Access control offices, and graphics support, to supportive efforts required, as well as to supplement the BMDO government personnel. Typical efforts include cost estimating, security management, contracts management, strategic relations management and information management. These efforts include assessment of technical project design, development and testing, test planning, assessment of technology maturity and technology integration across BMDO projects; and support of design reviews and technology interface meetings. Program control tasks include assessment of schedule, cost, and performance, with attendant documentation of the many related programmatic issues. The requirement for this area is based on most economical and efficient utilization of contractors versus government personnel.
(U) The FY 1996 Defense Authorization Act eliminates the management program element effective with the FY 1997 President's Budget submission. This overhead management and indirect program support funding has been realigned in accordance with Public Law 104-106.
(U) This project is assigned to the Budget Activity and Program Element codes as identified in this descriptive summary in accordance with existing Department of Defense policy. It further provides an audit trail for FY 1995 and FY 1996 management account funding.
