Enterprise Solutions definition:

Enterprise solutions are a whole-of-government architectural, governance, vendor management and procurement approach where IT is aligned to business services and solutions are based on re-usable components across Government of Canada departments.

Benefits of enterprise solutions:

• Horizontally enable external and internal business services and provide cohesive experience to users and other stakeholders.

• Reduces the total cost of ownership, that includes procurement, development, operation maintenance and decommission for services by streamlining the number of GC digital solutions.

• Enhances integration and collaboration, creates transferable skill sets, and leverage innovative work across the GC and the private sector.

• Maximize enterprise investment by consolidating solutions into Enterprise Solutions, based on Business Capability Model (BCM)

Decision Making Framework for Enterprise Solutions

GC EARB June 4th, 2020

Under the Policy on Service and Digital, departmental CIOs are responsible for “submitting to GC EARB, proposals concerned with the design, development, installation and implementation of digital initiatives”. They are also responsible for “adopting, as applicable, enterprise solutions within their respective department.”

Increasingly, a number of departmental digital initiatives propose solutions that address matters with common business capabilities, resulting in a diverse range of applications in operations across the GC IT landscape. TBS has recognized a need to provide assistance to departmental CIOs to inform decision-making with respect to the adoption of enterprise solutions.

The following presentation is the first iteration of a working draft of a decision making framework that will be used as a guide for the adoption of enterprise solutions. The framework wil be added to the revised GC EARB presenter template. Please send us your feedback on the decision making framework for enterprise solutions to [[1]]
