English term or phrase: highly reactive
Lack of policy and performance-oriented resource allocation

Present budget development processes are highly reactive and input-based. Times of resource scarcity are precisely when the need for effective and efficient resource use is greatest.

Budgeting: Reactive or Proactive?

...

Traditional Budgeting, Right or Wrong?

If you’ve ever worked for large corporations, institutions, or organizations, the attitude is usually “use what’s been allotted to you, or lose it!” That attitude is reactive in nature because you base the budget off of what happened in the past. So, you may ask, what’s wrong with that? The short answer maybe nothing at all. But if you work for a cash sensitive business where funds are closely monitored, either due to cash flow, or the nature of the funds is more custodial in nature (tithes in churches), this is generally the wrong approach to budgeting. Chances are if you’re reading this, that you fall under that categorization.

The Proactive Approach

Zero-based Budgeting (ZBB) is a term that has become popular in recent years, and is truly the proactive approach to budgeting. Instead of basing budget amounts and expenditures on what happened in the past, it requires those who are designing the budget to ask “what do we need for this year or program?”. So instead of using last year’s performance, you effectively wipe the slate clean and ONLY plan for what your expectations are coming up.
