Governor Cooper's Supplemental Budget Recommendations to respond to COVID-19 recovery during the 2020-21 fiscal year.

The Office of State Budget and Management (OSBM) is committed to serving North Carolinians by providing objective information and analysis to ensure a balanced budget and effective stewardship of public resources.

Our office develops the Governor's recommendations for state spending, certifies the budget enacted by the General Assembly, and executes the budget.

We develop, collect, and organize a wide variety of statistics. Effective budgeting requires reliable information to assess needs, available resources, and indicators of conditions being addressed by state programs.

We offer services to help our state government run efficiently and effectively, harnessing the power of evidence and data to improve decision-making and address our state’s challenges.

Well-managed government means maintaining systems for oversight and stewardship of resources. Our office provides services and reports to support this purpose.
