About this file
This file is an IT Budget Template and guidance document designed to support NASA's Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution (PPBE) 2025 IT Data Collection for the Commercial Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Destination Contract (CLDC). The template serves as a standardized reporting tool for contractors to capture and categorize all planned IT expenditures across fiscal years Prior Year-2 through Budget Year+4 using NASA's Mission-Theme-Program-Project (MTPP) structure and Technology Business Management (TBM) framework. Contractors must submit one template for every Project Code containing IT content and report all IT obligations categorized as either Development/Modernization/Enhancement (DME) or Steady State/Operation and Maintenance (SS/O&M) in whole dollars.
The template consists of five primary data collection sections: Project Info (investment descriptions and cloud usage identification), Budget Request (planned IT obligations by fiscal year), Solutions (categorization by TBM Solutions Type and Category), Towers (alignment to IT Towers and Sub-Towers), and Cost Pools (categorization by cost types including Internal Labor, External Labor, Outside Services, Hardware, Software, Facilities & Power, Telecom, and Other). NASA's agency-specific Business Solution Type is "Transport and Space," which includes eight Solution Categories aligned to Mission Directorates such as Space Flight, Research & Supporting Activities for Aeronautics Research, Earth Science, Space Innovation, Space Exploration & Operations, and Space Science. The template includes comprehensive definitions and examples for each TBM taxonomy element, ensuring consistent reporting across all project codes. Total costs across all four reporting tabs (Budget Request, Solutions, Towers, and Cost Pools) must equal to facilitate accurate financial tracking and cross-validation.

Technical Facing Solutions Def
| TECHNOLOGY BUSINESS MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS DEFINITIONS |
| Technical Facing Solutions |
Technical-Facing Solution types are how Enterprise IT supports the mission of the rest of the organization. They serve as the connective tissue, and focus on the underlying technologies, tools, and processes that make up IT services, or the “how” of IT.
| Solutions Type | Solutions Category | Definitions | |
| Delivery: | |||
| build, deploy, support, and operate the Workplace solutions, Business solutions, and Shared & Corporate solutions. Development services create and change business-facing services, typically through projects. Additional support and operations services assist users and ensure the availability of the business-facing services. | Strategy and Planning | Enable the CIO and IT leadership team to efficiently plan and manage the enterprise technology environment. Supported activities include planning, architecture, consulting, innovation and R&D, project and agile management, and vendor management. Many of the ITSM strategy services are included in this service category. | |
| Development | Plan, design, build, test and release new solutions. | ||
| Operations | Monitor, support, manage, and run the enterprise technology systems for the enterprise. Typically provided behind the scenes and not directly user-facing. | ||
| Support | Support the end user community with training, application support, service desk and central print services. | ||
| Security and Compliance | Ensure the integrity, protection and proper use of the enterprises technology |
systems and data.
Infrastructure:
include the core infrastructure — facilities, compute, storage, and network services — that are required to deliver any technology automation. Typically, these are not directly
| consumed by users. However, for some IT operating models, a shared “infrastructure and operations group” may directly provide these Infrastructure Services to their customers. | Compute | Provide the physical and virtual computing systems that run business applications, software tools and system services. Can be dedicated or on-demand and may be provided on-premises or through external managed services or public cloud offerings. | |
| Data Center | Provide a secure and controlled environment for housing compute, storage, network, and other technology equipment. | ||
| Network | Provide the voice and data network and supporting services such as load balancing, domain services, virtual private network, and the internet to enable communications within and outside the enterprise. | ||
| Storage | Persist information, data, files, and other object types ranging from real-time, high-performance data storage to long-term archive storage. Different offerings also provide recovery point objectives to meet the business needs of an application based on a business impact assessment. | ||
| Platform: |
include the application infrastructure (database, middleware, etc.) that enables business-facing applications and services. Typically, these are not directly consumed by users. They are components required by the end user, business application and shared application services (see below for the latter two types). However, for some IT operating models, the shared “infrastructure and
| operations group” may directly provide these Platform Services to their customers. | Application | Provide a range of application-based services that run on top of the compute platform to enable specific business applications. | |
| Data | Provide a variety of data-related services that capture and retrieve transactional activities in a database, store the data in a centralized data warehouse, provide analytical and visualization tools to explore the data and caching technology to distribute information to the edge to improve performance and response times. |

| Towers |
| Towers Table |
| Use this table to capture the investment costs aligned to the Technology Business Management (TBM) Towers and Sub-Towers. Definitions are provided in seperate tabs of this worksheet. |
- Cost is entered by Sub-Towers.
- The total costs identified should equal the totals in the Budget Request Tab, Cost Pool Tab, and Solutions Tab.
- Investments will not likely have costs associated with all IT Towers and Sub-Towers.
- The version of the TBM Taxonomy is subject to change; the applicable version of TBM is identified in OMB Circular A-11.
