Budget Formulation System

The Budget Formulation System (BFS) enables agency staff to formulate budgets, integrate budgets with strategic and annual performance plans, track financial actuals against established budgets, model future payroll needs, allocate costs, and more. BFS is a cloud based, internet application which allows agency staff to access it from virtually anywhere. The system is built in a flexible architecture which allows it to be easily customized to accommodate any budget structure and to respond quickly to constantly changing OMB and Hill requirements.
