Army Corps of Engineers

Budget Formulation Process Emphasizes Agencywide Priorities, But Transparency of Budget Presentation Could be Improved

By: Denise M. Fantone

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is the world's largest public engineering, design, and construction management agency. In FY 2006 it began incorporating performance information into its budget process, but Congress raised concerns that the criteria used by the Corps to prioritize projects are not transparent and the budget formulation process could achieve a higher return on investment. This report: (1) describes the information the Corps uses in its budget formulation process and the implications of the process; and (2) evaluates whether the President's recent budget requests for the Corps are presented so that agency priorities are clear and proposed use of funds transparent. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.

Review of the President's Fiscal Year 2009 Budget for the Defense Health Program's Private Sector Care Budget Activity Group

By: Denise M. Fantone

The Pres¿s. budget request for the DoD Defense Health Program has increased steadily in recent years. For ex., from FY 2005 to FY 2009, the budget request for the program increased from $17.6 billion to $23.6 billion, an increase of 34%. DoD has attributed a majority of this increase to growth in medical care, dental care, and pharmaceuticals provided in the private sector to active duty personnel and other eligible beneficiaries. These private sector expenses are funded through the Defense Health Program¿s Private Sector Care Budget Activity Group (BAG). From FY 2005 to FY 2009, the budget request for BAG increased by 36% -- from $9.0 billion to $12.2 billion. This report is a review of the FY 2009 budget request for the BAG. Charts and tables.
