The process of drawing up and approving estimates in budget organizations is crucial for effective financial management and resource allocation. However, traditional procedures often face challenges such as inefficiencies, lack of transparency, and delays. This article explores strategies to improve these procedures, focusing on the integration of digital tools, enhanced regulatory frameworks, and best practices in budgeting. A review of existing literature highlights the need for modernization and the potential benefits of adopting new approaches. The findings suggest that streamlining the estimation and approval process can lead to better financial governance and more efficient use of public resources.
