| + | == What is enterprise? == |
| + | Enterprise is generally defined as “an organization” or “organizational unit” |
| + | |
| + | In the GC, ‘enterprise’ refers to a whole-of-government holistic approach. |
| + | |
| + | An enterprise approach can be applied various facets, like governance, solutions, standards and culture. |
| + | |
| + | == Enterprise solutions definition == |
| + | Enterprise solutions are internal and external Government of Canada assets that can be re-used in and across multiple parts of the organization. |
| + | |
| + | == Why focus on enterprise solutions? == |
| + | To “operate as one” and advance the CEPP mandate we propose to focus on enterprise solutions defined by to business capabilities. |
| + | |
| + | == Role of business capabilities == |
| + | [[GC Enterprise Architecture/Business Capability Model|Business capabilities]] are an expression of '''what a business does''' and can do. |
| + | |
| + | It is proposed that enterprise solutions are defined as business capabilities |
| + | |
| + | == What is needed for Enterprise Solutions to work in the GC? == |
| + | The Enterprise Solutions framework has 3 facets. |
| + | [[File:Framework image.jpg|thumb]] |
| + | |
| + | === '''Governance''' === |
| + | • What are the roles and responsibilities and who decides who fills them? |
| + | |
| + | • What is the financial and funding model for an enterprise solution? |
| + | |
| + | • Which business capabilities should be addressed first? |
| + | |
| + | • How will user expectations be addressed? |
| + | |
| + | • What is the path to enterprise-wide adoption? |
| + | |
| + | === '''Culture''' === |
| + | • Is everyone ready to buy-in to enterprise solutions? |
| + | |
| + | • How do we ensure participation? |
| + | |
| + | • How will open and transparent input be gathered? |
| + | |
| + | • What are the mind-set and skills needed to foster an enterprise solution culture? |
| + | |
| + | === '''Solutions''' === |
| + | • Which business problem are we solving? |
| + | |
| + | • Who can access the Enterprise Solution? |
| + | |
| + | • What data and technology standards are required? |
| + | |
| + | • Is the implementation secure enough? |
| + | |
| + | • Will it always be reliably online? |
| + | |
| + | == Enterprise Solutions Framework Assessment Key Findings == |
| + | |
| + | ==='''Governance'''=== |
| + | '''''OK -''''' Pilots have been able to describe their solutions using the BCM, identify the business problem, and value proposition to address user needs |
| + | |
| + | '''''Issue -''''' Enterprise solution opportunities lack a defined path to advance and as a result tend to fizzle out |
| + | |
| + | '''''Issue -''''' Operational enterprise solutions governance and support is at a low maturity level |
| + | |
| + | '''''Issue -''''' Departments are not mandated and lack incentives to provide services to other departments, need a dedicated organization for enterprise solutions. |
| + | |
| + | '''''Issue -''''' Cost recovery and appropriation models are adequate for operational costs, but up-front funding is required for initial development and evolution of enterprise solutions. |
| + | |
| + | === '''Culture''' === |
| + | '''''OK -''''' Departments are ready to buy into Enterprise solutions once they exist, but lack of available ready to use solutions result in departments developing their own. |
| + | |
| + | '''''Issue -''''' Need dedicated teams of “enterprise” business owners and service providers to develop, operate and evolve enterprise solutions, do we need a Shared Services organization to act as the service provider? Do expand SSC mandate to include applications? |
| + | |
| + | '''''Issue -''''' Mandate use and appropriate departmental funds. Define a clear role and responsibility for users to determine needs and for the Business Owners and Service Provider to be accountable. |
| + | |
| + | === '''Solutions''' === |
| + | '''''OK -''''' Identifying and developing enterprise solutions is not a problem, focus needs to be on governance and culture |
| + | |
| + | '''''OK -''''' Pilots have been able to define the business problem and processes like the concept case and GCEARB are existing tools that can be used |
| + | |
| + | '''''OK -''''' Cloud base solutions from public cloud service providers are enabling business owners to envision enterprise solutions but they need technical partnerships from dedicated solution providers to provision IT |
| + | |
| + | == Proposed Roles and Responsibilities for Enterprise solutions == |
| + | '''Stakeholders, defines ”who”''' |
| + | |
| + | Stakeholders in the form of a ‘product board’ determine and validate user needs, prioritize the delivery roadmap and manage the related expenditures. |
| + | |
| + | • business/program representatives from across departments |
| + | |
| + | • sponsors enterprise solution |
| + | |
| + | • identify users |
| + | |
| + | • determine user needs |
| + | |
| + | • consumes |
| + | |
| + | • contributes funds |
| + | |
| + | '''Business Owner, defines ”what”''' |
| + | |
| + | The Business Owner has overall accountability for delivering on the business outcomes and achieving the benefits that a solution is meant to enable or facilitate. |
| + | |
| + | • Defines the required capabilities and intended business outcomes and benefits |
| + | |
| + | • Serves as sponsor and is accountable for the achievement of the business outcomes and benefits following implementation |
| + | |
| + | • Establishes and maintains governance |
| + | |
| + | • Secures funding and resources and provides oversight |
| + | |
| + | • Consults with and engages stakeholders and other implicated parties to ensure alignment towards delivery |
| + | |
| + | • Reviews and signs-off on key strategic risks |
| + | |
| + | • Authorizes the IT service |
| + | |
| + | • Oversees data stewardship practices at the production solution-level |
| + | |
| + | • Creates roadmap for service or product improvements |
| + | |
| + | '''Service Provider, defines ”how”''' |
| + | |
| + | The Service Provider operates and manages IT solutions and/or services and provides them to end users. |
| + | |
| + | • Responsible on behalf of an organization for requirements definitions, service delivery, security and reliability |
| + | |
| + | • Implement the requirements |
| + | |
| + | • Signs off on platform scope |
| + | |
| + | • Collect data to measure service levels and key performance indicators |
| + | |
| + | • Ensure compliance with standards |
| + | |
| + | • Monitor, test and adjust as required |
| + | |
| + | • Support innovative products and services |
| + | |
| + | • Conduct security assessments |
| + | |
| + | == Proposed Governance for Enterprise solutions == |
| + | |
| + | === '''Product management board per solution''' === |
| + | • Cross departmental stakeholder representation |
| + | |
| + | === '''DM CEPP''' === |
| + | • Enterprise Business Direction |
| + | |
| + | === '''GC EARB''' === |
| + | • Alignment with Enterprise Architecture Framework |
