Both HC-DTB and PHAC-CDSB recognize that this is a growing partnership in a rapidly changing space and will require Iterative refinement. + + + + − Both groups are committed on alignment to enterprise-wide authorities, notwithstanding exceptional circumstances. Both organizations will ensure that all staffing and IM/IT services delivered conform to relevant standards, policies, and procedures (e.g., security policies and procedures, accessibility standards, bilingualism). − This means a commitment to shared value. Communities of practice will be strengthened by each organization contributing their area of expertise (data science, IT security, enterprise architecture, cloud, DevOps, agile development). It also means continual learning and sharing of best practices to make both orgs stronger; integrating technology, policy, patterns, etc. to increase capabilities.+
