Heh, most of the DoD is. But DoD also has non Title10/PPBE-programmed funding (foreign military sales, contingency and humanitarian operations funds, MWR funds and incomes, support-to-other-agency (e.g. the US Navy NAVWAR organization provides SUBSTANTIAL IT and cyber expertise to non-DoD entities and other federal agencies such as the FBI and DHS).

The DoD is like the End Game Boss on legal and financial edge cases.

Where can I read more about this non Title 10 funding?

DoD Instruction 7000.14-R (https://comptroller.defense.gov/Portals/45/documents/fmr/Vol... is a good start)

Overseas Contingency Operations - https://www.cbo.gov/system/files?file=2018-10/54219-oco_spen...

Nonappropriated funds (MWR, etc.) - https://comptroller.defense.gov/Portals/45/documents/fmr/arc...

Foreign military sales / FMS - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_Military_Sales.

Thanks!

As someone who seems to know a bit about it, do you take the job? :)

I, uh, tilt at other windmills in that morass (although my windmills caused me to learn about the financial stuff - turns out certain kinds of money can't be used on certain kinds of contracts, etc.). It's space in my brain I wish I could fill with useful info like song lyrics or something.
