What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project MS6 of PE 0605384BP. 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.
Continue to provide independent analysis and objective advice to ensure CBDP programs, policies, and processes support operational requirements, promote efficiency and readiness, improve data management and meet Department level strategies. Continue to evaluate CB defense plans, programs, and budgets to measure portfolio effectiveness and identify alternative approaches. Continue CBDP data processes for advanced analytics capabilities.
Minor change due to routine program adjustments.
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.

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 | 13.4 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 10.7 |
| FY2027 | Request | 11.3 |
This activity is 15% of project MS6's FY2027 request and 13% of PE 0605384BP'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 project page.
