Financial Management

M2 Consulting Corporations objective with regards to financial management is to support program planning and budgeting, budget execution, contract resolution, funds tracking, and reconciliation within the DOD budget formulation structure. We support planning; programming; and budgeting under the PPBE framework.

M2 Consulting provides a comprehensive approach to financial management, budget development, cost estimating/modeling, execution, and tracking for all types of ACAT programs and projects. We support the development and tracking for budget documents, spend plans, and FMIS as well as cost projections to support the POM and FYDP requirements for PPBE. Our personnel have experience in planning, programming, and budgeting; cost and economic analysis; business management process improvement; and fiscal law as it relates to the budget cycle. This includes defense-planning guidance, program budget decisions, continuing resolution and requirements for reprogramming funds; and implementing financial policies and regulations. 

At M2 Consulting, we view Cost As an Independent Variable (CAIV) to plan programs based on realistic projections for funding and manpower necessary to meet ACAT program requirements. Our objective is to provide CAIV to develop Total Ownership Costs (TOC), schedule, and performance thresholds and objectives. DODD 5000.1, DODD 5000.2, and FARpolicies are used to ensure performance-based acquisition and logistics are incorporated into acquiring and sustaining products and services wherever feasible.

M2 prepares cost estimates and performs costs analyses, which are used to support the establishment of cost, technical, and schedule baselines, development of cost databases, and used for assistance in conducting cost benefit analyses. Our experienced staff uses cost models and documentation in accordance with DOD, DON, and SPAWARpolicies and instructions. Additionally, M2 provides Earned Value Management (EVM) assessments, reviews, and analyses addressing Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) elements and associated functional cost categories including: engineering, tooling, manufacturing, quality control, material, and rates.
