About High Level Design

In the High-level Design (HLD) major task, sessions will take place to validate the future state GC business process flows for the end-to-end EPS processes, which will confirm EPS business requirements. First, current-state business processes from both PSPC and other government departments will be compared. The future-state discussions will include recommendations for streamlining and standardizing end-to-end processes.

Below you will find information about each of the HLD sessions, as well as all accompanying information that was provided to attendees.

Week 1: Current State (Upstream)

August 20th: Source to Contract

Session Objective: Understand the Source to Contract process today; people, process, tech, issues.

August 21st (AM): Contract Complexity

Session Objectives: Understand the complexities in contracting: contract clauses, simplification, complexity, and risk assessment processes (risk-based approvals, complex contracting for major procurement).

August 21st (PM): E-Tendering (GETS)

Session Objectives: Understand the E-Tendering process; people, process, tech, issues.

August 22nd (AM): Supplier Enablement

Session Objective: Supplier onboarding, channels, process, policies.

August 23rd: Source to Contract (GC)

Session Objective: Discuss variations in source to contract across government departments.

Week 2: Current State (Downstream)

August 27th: Procure to Pay

Session Objective: Understand the P2O (including catalogues) process today: people, process, tech, issues.

August 28th: Services Procurement

Session Objective: Understand the Services Procurement process today: people, process, tech, issues.

August 29th: Current State - Master Data - Vendor/Item

Session Objective: Understand the vendor and item master management process today: people, process, tech, issues.

August 30th: Procure to Pay (OGDs - Goods and Services)

Session Objective: Discuss variation across departments.

Week 3: Fit-Gap Analysis and Requirements Validation

  • English Agenda:
  • French Agenda:

September 5th(AM): Ariba/Fieldglass Demos (Acquisitions Program + OGDs)

Session Objective: Demo of Ariba and Fieldglass solutions demonstrating the capabilities of the software. These demos are intended to act as a reference for participants going into future state design workshops. Through these demonstration, the project team will demonstrate out of the box functionality which will not be representative of the future state for GC EPS solution.

September 5th(PM): Supplier Enablement (External)

Session Objective: A selected group of suppliers have been invited to share the experience navigating GC’s vendor onboarding systems and processes. They are invited to share pain points and analyze current processes from their lenses. This workshop is not intended to be a future state design session.

September 12th: Upstream

Session Objective: This session is meant to review the differences between GC current state upstream processes and leading practices.

September 13th: Downstream

Session Objective: This session is meant to review the differences between GC current state downstream processes and leading practices. This is meant to be a participative workshop with the intention of discussing where deviation exists in level 4 activities and determine how to close the deltas to achieve leading business practices. This session is intended for EPS champions from PSPC and OGD.

Week 5: Future State Design - Business Processes

September 19th: Business Process Design (AP + OGD)

Session Objective: This session will determine how we will embed leading practices into current GC practices down to level 4 in regards to upstream processes. It is a follow up of September 12 session where we heard the participants, gathered their comments and now we are getting confirmation.

September 20th: Business Process Design (AP + OGD)

Session Objective: This session will determine how we will embed leading practices into current GC practices down to level 4 in regards to downstream processes. It is a follow up of September 13 session where we heard the participants, gathered their comments and now we are getting confirmation.
