There is also a necessity of permanent adapta­tion and skills for change management. The improvement of the efficiency of De­fense Resource Management in the Bulgarian MoD requires some additional changes and developments, such as: (1) Complete implementation of an effective Force Management System, which will set the identification and development of the required operational capabilities (ROCs) of the Bulgarian Armed Forces, and its synchronization with the other two sub-systems – the Integrated Defense Resource Management System (IDRMS) and the Acquisition System; (2) A need for more complete and realistic vision in the Defense Programming Guidance (DPG); (3) Enhancing the role and contribution of senior leadership; (4) Introduction of an integrated MoD; (5) Adequate financial projections; (6) Preparation of suitable risk analyses; (7) Use of the Balanced Scorecard (BSc) methodology; (8) The IDRMS information and technology environment should be improved by development and support of the Defense Resource Management Model database and application of the results for modeling and systematic analysis of the programs.

This article describes the Bulgarian experience in implementing advanced information technologies to support the process of defense planning, including phases of long-term planning, programming, and budgeting. The focus is on the implementation of the Defense Resource Management Model (DRMM) to match required capabilities and available resources during the programming phase</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
