Overview

Budget Analyst(C80-2024-21516)

Bowhead seeks multiple Budget Analysts for a growing effort insupport of the BFMC and COMPTROLLER, For Program Objective Memorandum (POM) planning support for the NAVSEA Enterprise, as part of the annual Programming Phase of the Program, Budget, and Execution (PPBE) Process.

Responsibilities

The POM describes how the Services and Defense agencies want to allot future funding for a program so that it meets Service Program Guidance (SPG) and Defense Planning Guidance (DPG). The POM includes an analysis of missions, objectives, alternative courses of action, and allocation of resources covering the 5-year Future Year Defense Program (FYDP).

Job duties to include but not limited to:

• POM Planning Phase- a review of all previous strategic guidance and the most current National Security Strategy (NSS). A review and analysis of the latest Office of Secretary of Defense (OSD) developed Defense Strategy Review (DSR). Provide inputs to the Defense Planning Guidance (DPG).

• POM Programming Phase- allocate resources to support the roles and missions of the NAVSEA Program Executive Offices (PEOs), Directorates, and subordinate Commands. Previous planning decisions, guidance contained in the DPG and other documents, and Congressional guidance are translated into detailed allocations of time-phased resource requirements that include forces, personnel, and funds.

• POM Budgeting Phase– finalize Budget Estimate Submission (BES). Upon receipt of the BES, the budget analysts begin their review of the budget requests. As part of that review process, the analyst will typically focus on four specific aspects of the budget request: (1) use of the proper funding policy for the appropriation category involved; (2) proper pricing of the effort for which funds are requested; (3) proper phasing of the work efforts – especially for acquisition programs; and (4) efficiency of budget execution in the current year and projected executability of the requested funds in the budget year.

• POM Execution Phase- Execution, or execution review, evaluates program results and occurs concurrently with the program review (in which programs that best meet strategic goals are prioritized), and the budget review (in which spending amounts are determined). The execution phase assesses a program’s actual performance in comparison with what its planned performance was. One aspect is the evaluation of how well currently available appropriations are being obligated and expended (i.e., measurement of the percentage of appropriated funds obligated and expended versus the OSD goals for the appropriation involved). The other aspect is the comparison between what the NAVSEA Budget Submitting Offices (BSOs) said they would accomplish with their appropriations and what they actually accomplished (i.e., outcomes achieved).

• POM Annual Performance Report (APR)- This execution phase analysis then enables Comptroller to prepare its Annual Performance Report (APR), which is required of all large Executive Branch agencies by the Government Performance Results Act (GPRA). The first aspect addresses the question of “are the appropriated funds being obligated and expended?”. The second addresses the question of “are the desired outcomes from using those funds being achieved?”.

• Portfolio Management- Execution, or execution review, evaluates program results and occurs concurrently with the program review (in which programs that best meet strategic goals are prioritized), and the budget review (in which spending amounts are determined). The execution phase assesses a program’s actual performance in comparison with what its planned performance was.

• Support NAVSEA Enterprise POM coordination, engagement and communication with NAVSEA Enterprise Stakeholders and OPNAV to align POM issues to NAVSEA Commander’s priorities.

• Provide POM guidance, timelines, status, analysis, and briefings regarding current POM activity to NAVSEA senior leadership.

• Provide support with internal program briefings to leadership of both internal and external reviews.

• Provide consolidated Command response to impact on sponsor budget reductions within each program office and across the command.
