Does the program use a prioritization process to guide budget requests and funding decisions?
Explanation: The ASC Campaign utilizes a multi-tiered prioritization process to guide budget requests and funding alternatives. First, any decision must be consistent and supportive of the overall move toward enhancing the predictive capability for users at the laboratories as described in the ASC Strategy and Roadmap documents. Second, Federal funding is directed to the Products of ASC (as defined by the ASC Business Model) based on requirements for that Product and the demonstration of progress. Third, the NNSA Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Evaluation process then causes ASC requirements to be prioritized with other Defense Programs and NNSA requirements. Priorities are reevaluated durinf the budget execution year and resource adjustments are made using the Work Authorization and Approved Funding Program processes. Evidence: ASC Vision; ASC Strategy; ASC Roadmap; ASC Business Model; ASC Program Plan; ASC PIPs; program-related Work Authorization (WA) and Approved Funding Progr
