Buy-to-Budget Flexibility Act
United States119th CongressS-2138Senate
Updated: Jun 18, 2025
Summary
This bill, known as the "Buy-to-Budget Flexibility Act," aims to significantly modify existing buy-to-budget requirements for end items within title 10 of the United States Code. Its core purpose is to introduce greater flexibility into how defense agencies budget for and acquire complete pieces of equipment. The legislation achieves this by amending Section 3069 , specifically by striking restrictive language from subsection (a) concerning agency heads and complete end items. Furthermore, it entirely removes subsections (b) through (d), which likely contained detailed or limiting provisions, and then redesignates the remaining subsection (e) as subsection (b). These modifications are designed to streamline the acquisition process by reducing bureaucratic hurdles and providing agencies with more discretion in their procurement of essential defense equipment.
