Asked vs spent: the PB2024 book requested $6.12M for FY2024; the PB2026 book reported $6.68M as actual total obligation authority — $557.0K above the request. 6.7 − 6.1 = 0.6 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description

Description — Passenger Carrying Vehicles

Passenger Carrying Vehicles includes the procurement of sedans, law enforcement sedans, ambulances, armored sedans, small buses, transit buses, large buses, intra-city motorcoach, and work buses. These vehicles are general in nature, but they fulfill unique and distinct needs commensurate with their design. Sedans are available in compact, mid-size, and large, and are used to support a variety of functions and missions at all levels of the Air Force. A portion of these sedans is dedicated for use by the Office of Special Investigations (OSI). Law Enforcement Sedans (LE Sedans) come equipped with a heavy-duty component package for law enforcement and security missions. Security forces personnel use this type of vehicle for emergency response, traffic control, patrol duties, and base security operations. Ambulances include both bus ambulances and modular ambulances used for medical evacuation operations. The bus ambulance is a 44-passenger bus converted to accommodate massive patient transport for medical emergency situations and humanitarian/disaster relief operations. The modular models are standard commercial ambulances available in 4x2 and 4x4 configurations. They are used for the movement of patients under field conditions, aircraft crash rescue operations, and routine transportation of patients to and from medical facilities. Buses include a variety of commercial vehicles that support a broad range of mass transit requirements. Bus sizes range from the 16-passenger shuttle bus to the 52-passenger bus. These vehicles support Air Education and Training Command (AETC) training units, Air Force band organizations, protocol offices, and several other missions.

Justification

Justification — Passenger Carrying Vehicles

BASIS FOR FY 2026 BUDGET REQUEST: - FY2026 procurement dollars in the amount of 5.557M will procure, but not be limited to, 38 vehicles in support of installation and unit mission requirements for Air Force personnel. Quantities are based on current requirements provided by the 441 Vehicle Support Chain Operations Squadron (VSCOS) IAW the process outlined in AFI 24-302, Vehicle Management. The requirements are generated from the priority buy model that is used to support the Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution (PPBE) process. The model calculates vehicle requirements by fund year by BPAC using end of life projections based on depreciation and service life of the vehicle, cumulative sustainment cost and mission priority. Quantities will vary year to year based on end-of-life projections. Quantities reflected on the PDOCs show current requirements for each year supporting Active Duty, Air Force Reserve Center (AFRC), Air National Guard (ANG), Rapid Airfield Damage Repair (RADR), Regional Base Cluster Prepositioning Kits (RBCP) for PACOM, and other initiatives as they arise. As the model applies the life expectancy/sustainment cost/mission priority logic in generating requirements, there can be gaps in individual vehicle type (NSN) requirements from year-to-year. Increase/Decrease narrative: Transit Buses (7%), Sedans (16%), and Workbuses (19%) have all seen a 6% or higher increase in unit costs. Contributing factors for these increases is attributed to parts shortages, inflation, a worldwide vehicle computer chip shortage and rising transportation/delivery costs associated with increased fuel prices. In addition, higher demand due to a shortage of vehicles from stagnant production during the pandemic also played a key role in unit cost increases.
