What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project ED9 of PE 0605018A. This is the budget justification's own description of work that has not happened yet — the one thing no other level of the budget carries.
FY 2027 funding supports continued technical analysis and provides funding for Agile contract support to continue iterative design and build for the Human Resource baseline system, additional HR capabilities, other future capabilities and Pay modernization and integration. Funds support Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM).
FY 2027 RDT&E decrease due to benefits gained from acceleration of legacy system subsumption.
FY2025–FY2026: what came before
Prior-year accomplishments and current-year plans from the same exhibit. Context for the FY2027 plan, not a series — an activity partitions its project exactly in the request year, but can under-cover it in earlier years.
FY 2026 funding supports continued technical analysis and provides funding for Agile contract support the design, build and integration for Army Military Payroll to the Department's Military Pay objectives, additional HR capabilities, and other future capabilities. Funds support Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM). Program awarded Product Support and Delivery contract (MAHC III) 2QFY26 providing maintenance, system enhancements, and enabling acceleration of legacy system subsumptions.
FY 2025 funding supports continued technical analysis and provides funding for Agile contract support to continue iterative design and build for the Army Military Payroll, additional HR capabilities, and other future capabilities. Funds support Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM).
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 54.7 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 95.2 |
| FY2027 | Request | 54.8 |
This activity is 53% of project ED9's FY2027 request and 53% of PE 0605018A's. In the request year the activities under a project sum to it exactly; in the current year they under-cover it in about 9% of cases, so an activity's delta can legitimately exceed its parent's and the two must not be compared row to row.

Every R-2A line of this project, largest FY2027 request first. Linked where the activity has enough of its own narrative to carry a page; the rest are shown in full on the program-element page.
