=Purpose of This Page=
   −
IT Expenditure is a response to the [https://www.tbs-sct.gc.ca/pol/doc-eng.aspx?id=12755 Policy on Management of Information Technology]
+
This page is intended for those in Business and Information Technology management who are tasked with responding to the annual Request for Departmental Information Technology (IT) Expenditure Information that has been requested by Treasury Board Secretariat (TBS) to selected Government of Canada (GC) departments and Agencies.
   −
<blockquote>''6.2.15 Producing the departmental IT Plan and IT progress report, the '''IT expenditure''' report, and responding to compliance monitoring and performance measurement processes and on-going Application Portfolio Management update reports.''</blockquote>
+
This page provides tools to aid you in collecting and reporting departmental IT expenditures to TBS.
   −
OCIO develops the guidance and the excel template for departments to submit their data to TBS once a year (by Oct 31).
+
=Context=
   −
'''Community''': [https://gcconnex.gc.ca/groups/profile/12263474?language=en https://gcconnex.gc.ca/groups/profile/12263474?language=en]
+
In the past, i.e. before 2009-10, the way departmental IT expenditures were planned and tracked had been left to the discretion of departments. This resulted in a diverse base of categories in use by individual departments, making it impossible at the GC level to properly consolidate IT expenditures in meaningful categories, or use this information for internal to government, benchmarking purposes.
   −
'''Template''': [https://gcdocsp.tbssct.local/gcdocs/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objaction=overview&objid=34843678 https://gcdocsp.tbssct.local/gcdocs/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objaction=overview&objid=34843678]
+
GC could not attest to, nor properly report on its baseline IT spend. Given the current climate of fiscal restraint, parliament’s focus on spending as well as in addressing the OAG’s report on Aging IT, it became clear that we must establish an IT Expense Baseline for GC without further delay, as a prelude to informed IT management going forward.
   −
'''CFO & CIO Call letter''': [https://gcdocsp.tbssct.local/gcdocs/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objaction=overview&objid=34475472 https://gcdocsp.tbssct.local/gcdocs/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objaction=overview&objid=34475472]
+
For this reason, the Comptroller General of Canada and the Chief Information Office of Canada have jointly issued a Request for Departmental IT Expenses Information to selected departments and agencies.
   −
As of April 1st, the new [https://www.tbs-sct.gc.ca/pol/doc-eng.aspx?id=32601 Directive on Service and Digital] takes effect:
+
To properly create a baseline for the future, TBS asked those departments and agencies to use a “high-level” expenditure model to capture the baseline for GC IT expenses starting with 2009-2010 data, and going forward with successive fiscal year data.
   −
<blockquote>''4.1.1.7 Producing the departmental '''IT expenditure''' report and on-going Application Portfolio Management update reports.''</blockquote>

More information on [[IT Services Management]] and ongoing [[IT Services Management/IT costing working group|work for IT services costing]] is available on their respective GCPedia pages.
