What is a Decision Unit?
Hillsborough County uses a “zero-base budgeting” technique to examine its basic programs and services to determine if they are still needed and, if so, prioritizing them in accordance with available resources and desired outcomes. Each department or agency reviews its programs and divides them into distinct units. These are called "decision units." The decision units describe distinct services and levels at which these services may be offered. Each decision unit builds on preceding decision units. Decision units should also relate to the department's mission, key objectives, any appropriate capital projects and performance measures.
Hillsborough County is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer
