I am working in a big IT department with quite big HW budget. Year to year I'm struggling with annual budget plans; can you refer me any sources of trainings/readings about processes of budgeting; best practices etc.? I am looking for the inspirations how we could change our practices in this area.

Pawel -

The best thing to do with annual budgeting is to kick it to the curb and influence the "powers that be" to move to an ongoing budgeting model following a rolling wave approach. Otherwise, all you end up doing is expending huge amounts of effort in developing a work of fiction which is out of date a month or two after the start of the new fiscal year.
