The mission of the Plans & Programming Bureau is to manage the planning, programming, GIS, and real property responsibilities for the Montana Army National Guard.

Real Property Development Plan (RPDP) is a yearly submission composed of the TAG Narrative, Capital investment strategy and the Long Range Construction Plan. This document provides guidance for MILCON and SRM expenditures for 25+years.

Long Range Construction Plan (LRCP) is a list of projects in PRIDE and contains all the projects called out in the TAG narrative as well as all major and minor MILCON projects as prioritized by the Adjutant General.

Capital Investment Strategy (CIS) is a list of projects too small for the LRCP and focused on maintenance of existing facilities. Created in conjunction with the facilities lifecycle plan.

Installation Master Plan (IMP) is the roadmap to building out an installation for Fort Harrison and Limestone Hills Training Area to its full scope of authorization. This was completed in 2018 and will be up for renewal in 2023 as required by regulation.
