What is the primary purpose of the current AFP version?

The primary purpose of the current AFP (Annual Funding Plan) version is to capture all AFP deltas. This means that it is designed to systematically document any changes or variations from previous versions of the plan, which can include adjustments in funding allocations, project priorities, or program requirements. By focusing on these deltas, the AFP helps stakeholders understand the reasons behind each modification and the implications for budgeting and resource allocation moving forward.

This function is critical because it ensures transparency and accountability in the budgetary process, enabling decision-makers to track changes over time. Stakeholders can assess how past decisions impact current and future funding strategies, allowing for better-informed choices that align with organizational goals. Understanding these deltas is essential for effective budget management and planning, as it provides context for the current financial landscape and aids in projecting future needs.
