Introduction
General IntroductionProcurement Business Intelligence Service (PBIS) is a data warehouse capability used for mining enterprise procurement data across the Department of Defense (DoD) and displaying that information in a user-friendly dashboard-like presentation to understand the true health of the acquisition community's operating environment.
Its primary purpose is to serve Senior Procurement Executives and provide management-level reports that enable them to make well informed business decisions prior to issuing new procurement policy that may impact other functional areas within the DoD supply chain.
Purpose of this User GuideThe purpose of this User Guide is to provide an overview of the Better Buying DoD by Portfolio (Small Business Analysis) Report. This includes steps to access and interpret the report in PBIS, as well as parameters established to dictate the data appearing in the report.
Report Overview
Better Buying DoD by Portfolio (Small Business Analysis) Report consists of a two-tab report identifying ACTIONs and AWARDs organized by Portfolio to facilitate analysis of adherence to Better Buying Power initiatives. Additionally, this report provides Small Business Eligible Dollars as well as dollars allocated to Small Businesses by category thus enabling analyses. The report houses multiple years of data, which can be viewed one year at a time due to volume, and manipulated in a number of ways to display and export relevant information, identify trends, perform analyses, etc.
For additional details regarding Better Buying Power initiatives, please refer to the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics memorandum found at https://www.acq.osd.mil/fo/docs/betterBuyingPower3.0(9Apr15).pdf.

RequirementThe Better Buying DoD by Portfolio (Small Business Analysis) Report collects, aggregates, and presents all metadata related to both ACTIONs and AWARDs in order to facilitate analysis of adherence to the Better Buying Power initiatives along with Small Business Eligible Dollars and dollars allocated to Small Businesses by category.
Data SourcesData for the Better Buying DoD by Portfolio (Small Business Analysis) Report are pulled directly from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS). FPDS data is available from FY2010 forward via ATOM FEED.
Business RulesParameters have been applied to the data from FPDS to ensure ACTIONs and AWARDs retrieved and displayed in the first tab of this report, Small Business DoD Awarded By Portfolio, are issued by DoD. Additionally, ACTIONs and AWARDs retrieved and displayed on the second tab, Small Business DoD Funded By Portfolio, are funded by DoD. Note this is specific to AWARDs and does not include Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs).
Programming is then developed to ensure these restrictions:

Portfolio” tab. FUNDING_AGENCY_DEPT_ID = ‘9700’

Portfolio” tab.

PromptsPrompts are dropdown menus that allow users to filter the report results by a set of predetermined fields. Once the report has been generated, multiple prompts are available to refine results. These prompts are interdependent; that is, each prompt and whether or how it is filtered will affect what data the other prompts display.
Within the report, the prompts are as follows in the Small Business DoD Awarded by Portfolio tab of this report, as shown in Figure 8. Users may make selections as desired into any of these in order to filter results.
Action Typeo Select whether you wish to see all contract actions or new contracts awarded (this
is a radio button, where the user may either select “All Actions” or “New Awards”). By default, the report is set to present data for all actions.
Fiscal Yearo Choose the fiscal year (or years) for which you want to pull data (the report
defaults to the current fiscal year). This is based on the year the contract was signed. You can select as many fiscal years as you need from FY2010 forward.
Date Signed (between)o Select two dates to bound your data, based on the year the contracts you wish to
view were signed. By default, the report will display all data for the current fiscal year to date. Note that your selected dates may span multiple fiscal years (for example, to cover a period from FY15 into FY16).
Contracting Departmento To refine your search based on the department that issued the contract, select the
name of the contracting department whose data you wish to pull. If nothing is selected, data for all contracting departments will be displayed.
Contracting Agency Nameo To refine your search based on the agency that issued the contract, select the
name of the contracting agency whose data you wish to pull. If nothing is selected, data for all contracting agencies will be displayed. Contracting Agency Name, Major Command Code and Contracting Office Code are a hierarchical grouping in that order (highest to lowest), and so have specific dependencies relative to each other.
PSC Typeo Select whether you wish to view a product (P) or service (S). If nothing is
selected, the report will display results for both products and services. PSC Type, Portfolio Group, Portfolio, and PSC are hierarchically related, and so have specific dependencies relative to one another.
Portfolio Group
Document Revision: V1.0 Page 11
o Select the portfolio group for which you wish to view data. If nothing is selected, the report will display all portfolio groups. This is one level of detail up from Portfolio, and has specific dependencies relative to PSC Type, Portfolio and PSC.
Portfolioo Portfolio represents the next level of detail down from Portfolio Group, and has
specific dependencies on PSC Type and PSC. Select the portfolio for which you wish to view data. If nothing is selected, the report will display all portfolios.

ExportAll reports can be downloaded in various formats using the “Export” link at the bottom of the page. The options include PDF, Excel, and PowerPoint. When exporting large datasets, choose the “Data” option and then choose “CSV Format.” (Figure 10 demonstrates this process.) Choosing Excel rather than CSV will result in a very large file that will take a significant amount of time to download. Choosing CSV – a text file offering the most basic and flattened option - allows you to quickly and easily download a workable version of the report. After downloading the CSV file, you can import the data into Excel if needed.

AggregationColumns can be removed in order to aggregate the report at a higher level by the remaining columns, as shown in Figure 11. This is done by right-clicking on the column to eliminate, then clicking on “Exclude column” from the menu that generates. Multiple columns may be excluded in the same view, but each must be selected for exclusion separately (that is, they must be selected one by one, not in a batch). Similarly, when including them back in the report, you must choose them one by one to be re-incorporated back into the report.
Figure 11
To re-include columns you’ve excluded, right-click on the body of the table, select “Include column,” and choose from the list of excluded columns, as shown in Figure 12.
