A budget office is a government or institutional department responsible for preparing, analyzing, and overseeing budgets.
At the federal level, the Office of Management and Budget handles executive branch spending proposals, while the Congressional Budget Office provides nonpartisan fiscal analysis to legislators.
Universities, corporations, and state governments maintain their own budget offices to manage financial planning.
