  4. Goal/Program Structure Climate Understand climate variability and change to enhance society’s ability to plan and respond Ecosystems Protect, restore & manage the use of coastal and ocean resources through ecosystems- based management Weather & Water Serve society’s needs for weather and water information Commerce & Transportation Support the Nation’s commerce with information for safe, efficient & environmentally sound transportation Mission Support Provide organizational excellence, infrastructure & mission support • CL Observations & • Monitoring* • CL Research & • Modeling* • CL Service • Development* • Habitat* • Corals* • Coastal & Marine • Resources • Protected Species • Fisheries Mgmt • Aquaculture* • Enforcement* • Eco.

  5. LFW Portfolio LFW: The 800 lb Gorilla • Produce Local Forecast and Warnings • WFO funding, Facilities, Fire Wx • Observe the Atmosphere • NEXRAD, Profilers • Observe the Land Surface • ASOS • Produce Central Forecast Guidance • NHC, SPC, NCEP Central Ops • Support Field Operations • MDL, Systems Engineering Center • Environmental Information for Predictions • AWIPS • Disseminate Critical Information • NWR, NOAANet, Gateway • Performance Assessment • Service Assessments Represents ~2/3rds of the NWS budget • Enhance Human Capital • Training • Manage Daily Operations • Regional HQ Funding • Outreach & Education • StormReady National MIC/HIC Conference 2010

  6. FY12 LFW Alternatives • DSS Foundation/Upgrade IT Infrastructure • NOAANet, Gateway & NCEP Alt Proc Site • Fund Facilities Leases & WFO Construction • Upper Air/Radiosonde • National Mesonet • NEXRAD O&M • Meteorological Assimilation Data Ingest System (MADIS) O&M • Fire Weather & IMET Program Needs • Improving NOAA's COOP (Cooperative Observer) Program Made it From NWS To NOAA Budget Office for FY12 National MIC/HIC Conference 2010

  7. Case for Change* • Central Flaw: Planning is divorced from execution • NOAA does not evaluate performance with respect to strategy • Must improve integration of multi-LO programs • Budget & execution must clearly align with strategic priorities (Strategic Plan & AGM) • PPBES is not an efficient or effective decision making process for NOAA *From Sue Kennedy briefing, 7 Apr 2010 National MIC/HIC Conference 2010

  8. New Strategy • Align goals with Next Generation Strategic Plan • Hold LOs accountable for performance toward goals and objectives • Preserve and enhance integration expertise of Goal Teams and Program Managers • Plan and execute with “real dollars” • Make process more efficient (combining Planning and Programming Phases) National MIC/HIC Conference 2010

  9. PPBES PLAN PRGRAM BUDGET EXECUTE Strategic Execution & Evaluation Execution, Evaluation Strategic Planning Budget Development Transition to SEE National MIC/HIC Conference 2010 9

  10. Waiting for Approval • Decision on transition to SEE @ 5/26 NEP • NGSP is not yet finalized • Structure of the programs, portfolios and program managers are not yet finalized • Alternative submission process will be changed – not yet specified National MIC/HIC Conference 2010

  11. Way Ahead • Regardless of transition – must continue to think strategically! • Holding a Budget Summit for all NCEP centers & associated programs in May to • Gather common needs • Build coalitions among programs • Generate business cases for budget submissions • This same process can be done for NWS Regions/field – let me know of your interest! National MIC/HIC Conference 2010

  12. A Final Thought… • Investment Advisory Team (IAT) • Authorized by NWS CFO • Consists of NWS staff from Programs, HQ, NCEP & the field • Creates Integrated Priority Lists (IPLs) to recommend prioritization of funding of alternatives targeting the budget planning phase • Creates Priority Reserve Lists (PRLs) to recommend prioritization of funding during execution year – using funding that may become available • IAT will be meeting late spring to create FY10 PRL National MIC/HIC Conference 2010
