Funds the research and development of AF Civil Engineer (CE) NexGen IT systems for all Total Force installations. The purpose for the funds are to develop/modernize NexGen IT, a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) system; specifically to develop a Space Management/Utilization capability as well as new interfaces with other Civil Engineer data systems (i.e. Builder SMS). NexGen IT provides an integrated asset management system for the CE community with the capability to support cost accounting, Operations (Work Management and Material Control), Real Property, Project Management, and Energy Management. NexGen IT replaces several Legacy IT systems that lack the capability to meet present and future mission requirements and the ability to be compliant with Congressionally-mandated Financial Audit Improvement Readiness (FIAR). The Comprehensive Planning Platform (CPP) is a Civil Engineering Enterprise solution that enables installations and 2,800 users to make investment decisions based on asset management principles, strategic guidance, and data through a repeatable planning process. The platform digitally integrates Installation Development Plans (IDPs), Component Plans, & Asset Management Plans (AMPs) - strengthens installation planning & operationalizes asset management responsive to changes at the installation and enterprise by allowing for continuous updates. Funding is necessary to support migration activities from the current SharePoint Online (SPO) environment to Cloud-based servers, as well as support continued development of features necessary for the long-term build out of the CPP. This requirement supports performance of a full financial audit as required by title 10 U.S.C. Chapter 9A, Sec 240-D. This program element may include necessary emergent or unanticipated civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver NexGen IT and CPP development/modernization for emergent or unanticipated weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0207479F. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
