IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE
PRESIDENT'S COMMISSION ON DEFENSE MANAGEMENT (U)
This directive outlines the steps I have approved for
the implementation of the initial recommendations of the
Commission on Defense Management. I expect the Commission
to make additional recommendations which I will evaluate in
due course and to elaborate on those it has already made, as
required. We must, however, be especially mindful of the need
to move quickly and decisively to implement those changes that
the Secretary of Defense and I have approved to date. (U)
I. National Security Planning and Budgeting (U)
The current Department of Defense planning,
programming, and budgeting system (PPBS) is a sophisticated
and effective process for the allocation of defense resources.
Effective planning is a key element of PPBS. In striving to
achieve the objectives of our five-year defense program within
a constrained resource environment, the requirement for stable
and effective planning is becoming even more important. The
planning process requires that we consider the entire scope of
national policies and priorities. (U)
In this regard, I have determined that defense planning should
convey the initial guidance from senior civilian and military
officials to those required to implement such guidance by:
1) the NSC reviewing our national security strategy to
determine if changes are required; 2) strengthening the
process through which I provide policy and fiscal guidance
to the Department of Defense; and 3) enhancing the role of
the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the resource
allocation process. (U)
NSDD-32 and supporting documents will be reviewed by the
National Security Council to assess the need for any
appropriate and necessary modifications. This review will
begin as soon as possible and extend no more than 60 days
beyond the date of this directive. The NSC will then report to
me on the need for any adjustments to current national security
strategy. (S)
