Bureau of Industry and Security President's Submission, FY 2012.

摘要

The mission of the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is to advance U.S. national security, foreign policy, and economic objectives by ensuring an effective export control and treaty compliance system and by promoting continued U.S. strategic technology leadership. In addition to fulfilling its unique national security mission, BIS contributes to the Department's priorities and goals. While BIS utilizes the acquisition services of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and has no acquisition workforce of its own, the Bureau is an active participant in the Department's acquisition reform efforts. Also, BIS complies with energy conservation measures as presented in Departmental policies and procedures. For Fiscal Year 2012, BIS is requesting $111.2 million. This is an increase of $10.8 million over the Fiscal Year 2011 annualized Continuing Resolution request. The increase includes $2.1 million for necessary cost of living adjustments, and an increase of $10.4 million for new initiatives. Additionally, after reviewing its administrative costs, BIS has identified $1,718,000 in administrative savings. Of these savings, $1,418,000 is tied to its Information Technology (IT) plans for FY 2012 (see the details in the program change on page 31), and in the area of acquisition, BIS expects to reduce its costs by $300,000 utilizing strategic sourcing opportunities negotiated by the Department. BIS has also identified $282,000 in Working Capital Fund savings which is reflected in our base.
