Table C highlights NASA's steps in complying with Federal budget formulation requirements and provides a top-level schedule for the activities. The schedule below assumes NASA initiates the Planning Phase a full calendar year before a preliminary OMB Submit is completed (i.e. about two calendar years before the start of the budget year).
Note: Table C shows an ideal schedule, but actual timetables may vary. The development of performance reports and plans are managed separately and excluded from the schedule. Coordination between budget and performance occur throughout the process. Note that development of performance reports and plans are managed separately and not included in the schedule. Coordination between budget and performance should be considered as occurring throughout the process.
