Create Program Data
Identify a unique set of community services or programs your organization provides that enable the government to run smoothly. This systemic process involves taking a full program inventory and assessing each program's alignment with your mission and objectives.
These distinct programs offer a language accessible to staff, elected officials, and residents. Examples: snow removal, utility billing, pothole repair, and so on.
Identify Program Costs
Learn the true cost of each program. Generate insights from ideas applied at the program level and expanded via meaningful data layers: one-time and ongoing costs and revenue, impacted departments, level of complexity, and projected timeline to complete.
Build a Priority-Based Budget
Evaluate the importance of individual programs through the lens of each organization's strategic priorities. This holistic approach provides decision makers with a data-backed foundation for informed budgeting decisions. It also ensures that your community can identify and preserve the most highly valued programs.
Take Informed Action
Use data to support a transparent decision-making process. By harnessing PBB data, communicating opportunities, and assessing program insights, organizations can uncover up to 10 percent of their budget to reallocate to higher priorities and act on specific program changes or the creation of new programs.
Priority-Based Budgeting
The ResourceX PBB product goes beyond a line-item budget and provides insight into what the government does and how much it costs. Our approach creates a broader understanding of how public funds are applied and identifies wasted or underutilized resources. With useful data and full visibility, budgeting teams can make informed decisions that address the priorities and needs of a community.
Align Resources to Priorities
Priority-based budgeting ties each request to defined programmatic outcomes and detailed information based on an organization's goals. The PBB approach enables organizations to easily identify revenue possibilities, allocate and reallocate funds, and create a sustainable and fiscally responsible budget.
Build Trust
Traditional budgeting lacks clear output and makes it difficult to visualize allocation and outcomes. Our PBB platform provides proposed and approved line-item budget data and reporting that increases transparency and communication with leaders and decision makers. Data visualizations also show residents how community input impacts fund allocation and resulting outcomes.
Create Fiscal Wellness
In a deficit, a traditional budget process often attempts to fund the same programs from the previous year at a reduced level. PBB identifies programs that offer the highest value and continues to fund them while reducing service levels, divesting or eliminating lower-value services. PBB puts all of the money on the table to encourage more creative conversations about services.
Increase Accessibility
What is the most important reason to adopt program and priority-based budgeting? The ability to create a more transparent budget and budget development process. PBB creates and promotes data to connect departments and elected officials with the public. The programmatic language establishes a "say what you mean, and mean what you say" budget process that demands accountability.
Let Data Lead
Priority-based budgets drive smart decision-making. Each program clearly states its purpose, how much it costs to deliver, and how it aligns with the overall priorities of the community. Program data includes critical information about mandates and community reliance on the program. PBB goes beyond traditional budgeting to provide a heightened level of understanding and communicate the impact of funding changes.
