State agency final 2026 capital budget requests are due in CBS by October 17, 2025. Information can be found on MMB’s capital budget webpage.
- CBS is open for state agency users to continue their work.
- Please remember to complete all screens in CBS, to include draft bill language in a Word document in the Upload Documents screen, and to put your requests in final submitted status by October 17.
If you have questions about the capital budget process, requirements, or due dates, please contact MMB’s Capital Budget Coordinator, Maddy Kennedy (madeleine.kennedy@state.mn.us or 612-718-1784).
Standard Reports allow agency, legislative and MMB staff to run reports for data available in the Budget Planning and Analysis System (BPAS).
Users can run certain Standard Reports with Biennial Cycle data when the current budget cycle is Supplemental. Reports include the Entity Detail, Combined Transfers, and Change Item Detail.
Each standard report has access granted at the User Role level. Reports available to a user depend on the data security granted for the current budget period and scenario, and are limited to certain reports. Best practice is to refresh the page before selecting a new report, cycle, or scenario to ensure the correct filters load.
State agencies received a Payroll Update on October 2, 2025. Because this update affects the Compensation Analysis Reporting Tool (CART), we are highlighting it here, as well.
The memo regarding Recent Cost Projections Updates for Budget Fiscal Years 2026, 2027, and 2028 provides updated cost projections of wage and salary increases, insurance costs, and state pension retirement benefits for budget planning fiscal years (BFY) 2026, 2027, and 2028.
- Agencies should review the payroll projections to incorporate recent system updates and ensure alignment with the memo.
FY26 projections in the Compensation Analysis Reporting Tool (CART) now account for the employer share of Paid Family Leave, and FY27-28 projections in both SEMA4 and CART now reflect the FY28 1.75% general wage adjustment.
- As a reminder, cost projections are run each pay period and are available following the payroll posting. Agencies should review this report as needed to ensure information is up to date.
The Fiscal Notes Tracking System (FNTS) is under the operational control of the Legislative Budget Office (LBO), which manages user authorization and system access for FNTS. The FNTS authorization form is located on the LBO Training Materials webpage.
