Introduction
Historically, the budget officer has had direct control over the funds allotted at the company level by the budget. This has changed in recent years as an increasing number of jurisdictions have assigned responsibilities to the company officer. Reflecting this trend, NFPA 1021, Standard for Fire Officer Professional Qualifications, requires that company officers be able to prepare a budget request to obtain the items needed to operate their stations and companies. The ability to make a simple budget request along with its justification prepares a company officer for greater budget responsibilities that come with higher rank.
Directions
Prepare a budget request using the scenarios described in the activity section below (both activities must be completed for full credit). Fire Station Budget Request Worksheets are provided to assist in the preparation of the requests. Include a budget justification for the request following the table on the worksheet describing the need for the request. The justification is to be brief but must have enough information so that even a casual observer can understand the validity of the request. Each budget item needs to be justified – explain any calculations and describe the need. Remember the person reviewing the budget worksheets does not have access to the Activity information provided to you.
