This system function provides the ability to accumulate, classify, summarize, interpret, analyze, and report cost and performance information in support of DoD executive decision-making. This system function will also provide appropriate information that will be used as the foundation for performance based management. It serves as a general tool to support the development of cost estimates for major programs (e.g. F18, AV-8), projects (e.g. construction), and processes. Historical cost and performance information may be utilized and updated. This system function utilizes data elements developed or maintained by the Manage Financial Information Structure system function as cost objects in the processes, systems, and applications that that support the DoD performance based management system. It also allows for the management of pre-established cost models. |
