Research and Experimentation Project Principles v1.0
The purpose of these principles is to guide the OCHRO Research and Experimentation team (RET) in identifying and prioritizing projects and initiatives. Note: We are testing this first iteration with calls for projects in Q1 2021-22 and seeking feedback on their design and applicability.
| 10 Principles | 10 Principles |
|---|---|
| 1. Relevance and alignment | The project aligns with organizational priorities (enterprise and OCHRO) and policy, legislation or regulation, and with Canada’s Digital Standards. |
| 2. Unique need | The project is unique. It is new or builds on enabling work. It doesn’t duplicate other initiatives. |
| 3. Partner support | The project and process resonate with external and enterprise partners, and/or project sponsors are open to exploring collaboration. |
| 4. Feasibility | The project has a clear problem statement. RET and partners are positioned to scope and undertake the work. |
| 5. Openness | The project design, results, and lessons can be shared with colleagues across the GC and beyond? We can embody openness by default. |
| 6. Impact/ Measurable benefits | Desired outcomes can be measured; offer a tangible benefit for people management ecosystem. Benefits accrue either immediately, incrementally, or offer potential for transformational change. |
| 7. Impact/Efficiency gains | The project improves efficiencies across processes or systems |
| 8. Sustainability | The project is potentially self-sustainable once complete. |
| 9. Scalability | The methodology, or overall initiative, can be scaled or replicated. |
| 10. Ethics and privacy | Any potential ethical and/or privacy considerations can be addressed. |
