An important message about programme management at ESDC

Transcript

Hi, I'm Mark Perlman, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Designated Official for the Management of Project and Programmes at ESDC.

Now that the TBS Policy reset is in effect, I'm pleased to announce the launch of the programme management framework for ESDC.

As you know, ESDC has been undertaking major transformational change. This new framework will improve the delivery of complex change by putting robust processes, systems and controls in place so we are better positioned for success. We currently have two programmes at ESDC which will leverage this framework: The HR Modernization Programme and the Benefits Delivery Modernization Programme.

Our goals over the next year include: Enhancing our capability and capacity for programme management; Upskilling senior staff to function in a programme oversight, assurance and delivery environment; Establishing our enterprise project management function to support programme management; and Developing processes to guide the delivery of programme management practices in the Department.

Establishing a programme management framework is just the beginning. We need your support to successfully deliver complex change at ESDC. I look forward to working with you.
