Summary/Abstract: In this short paper, we try to analyze and outline the importance and implications of PPBS, its nature and role and its potential impact on governmental agencies and institutions. Nowadays, more than ever before, organizations and institutions – generally, and governmental agencies and institutions – especially, are being confronted with the concept of PPBS (planning- programming-budgeting system). In a very complex world, in the context of evolution of the society, we need a process for identifying, costing and assigning a complexity of resources for establishing priorities and strategies in a major program and for forecasting costs, expenditure and achievements within the immediate financial year or over a longer period.
