Position Title: Assistant Deputy Minister, Information Management

General Accountability

Is accountable for leading the planning, delivery and operations of information management (IM) assets and associated information technologies to support the missions, operations and administration of the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Forces.

Organization Structure

The Assistant Deputy Minister, Information Management, is at the first managerial level reporting jointly to the Deputy Minister and the Chief of Defence Staff.

Specific functions of the positions reporting to the Assistant Deputy Minister (ADM), Information Management, are as follows:

Director General, Information Management Strategic Direction, (staff of 158) is responsible for key elements of the IM program, including developing the IM Governance Framework, the Defence IM Strategy, strategic IM plans and requirements, and the enterprise architecture required for a cohesive program that meets departmental business and operational information requirements.

Director General, Enterprise Application Services Division, (staff of 102) is responsible for defining and supporting all enterprise applications required to support the business or operational needs of cross-functional communities of users.

Director General, Information Management Project Delivery, (staff of 432) is responsible for leading all capital IM projects (applications and infrastructure); providing functional project management support throughout the project life cycle; and overseeing all departmental IM projects during development and implementation.

Director General, Information Management Operations, (staff of 4,560) is responsible for providing information management services to support military operations.

Chief of Staff (staff of 83) is responsible for coordinating group functions and the provision of internal services (financial management, human resource management, client relations, issues management and business planning).

Nature And Scope

The Department of National Defence and the Canadian Forces (DND/CF) are responsible for defending Canada, its interests and its values, while contributing to international peace and security. The Canadian Forces are called upon to fulfill three major roles: protecting Canada, defending North America in cooperation with the United States, and contributing to peace and international security.

Within DND/CF can be found the entire range of services provided by most other government departments, in addition to an almost complete spectrum of industrial, commercial and personnel support activity (schools, universities, hospitals, churches, social services, airline services, research and development establishments, and manufacturing and repair facilities, with staff in every major capital city in the world).

In this context, the Assistant Deputy Minister, Information Management, is responsible for providing an extensive range of IM products and services to support the operational and business requirements of the Department and the CF. With the exception of weapons systems, the ADM is responsible for every computer, telephone and strategic communications network, and networks in departmental offices on every base and station, as well as for installations in operational theatres.

Within DND/CF, information is a mission-critical resource, the value of which can be life-saving or war-winning. It is therefore essential for the ADM to ensure that DND/CF has the capacity to manage this resource with a high degree of stewardship in order to derive maximum benefit from this investment. This major challenge requires the ADM to provide corporate leadership across the Department to ensure that information resources support business and administrative needs and Canadian Forces military operations.

A major challenge of the ADM is to lead cultural change within DND/CF to ensure that independent legacy systems are redesigned to reflect a network-centric IM environment based on a tightly controlled, evolving IM strategic plan. Meeting this challenge requires the incumbent to identify and pursue the strategies, approaches and systems that can strengthen military-to-military relationships with Canada's principal allies, and to ensure interoperability with Canadian Forces doctrine, operations and infrastructure. The ADM is also called on to develop and apply compelling strategies and approaches in order to convince the Canadian Forces to do the following: abandon its independent legacy applications development solutions; pursue enterprise solutions by adopting one corporate enterprise architecture, a single network and common systems; and invest in one focus of resource expenditures that will serve all managers and their external partners more effectively.

The ADM is accountable for providing operational support through the provision of intelligence collection, processing and dissemination services in support of Canadian Forces joint and combined operations conducted by the Command of Communications Groups, which comprise 52 Regular and 19 Reserve organizations made up of 5,000 military personnel. In addition, the Information Management Group controls the allocation of the military-assigned radio frequency bands in Canada and abroad to support frequency spectrum management, as well as the provision of signals intelligence and electronic warfare operational support to the Canadian Forces and other federal and departmental agencies.

The ADM provides authoritative advice and recommendations to the Deputy Minister and the Chief of Defence Staff on IM issues, such as the management of information as a corporate resource, linking IM to improved operational and administrative effectiveness, developing Command and corporate strategic plans and priorities, developing the overall IM plan for DND/CF, and finding effective ways of leveraging the enabling the effects of information technologies on all aspects of operations.

The ADM is responsible for providing representational and liaison interfaces with NATO and other international fora, the government's Chief Informatics Officer, the Government Telecommunications and Informatics Services Branch of PWGSC, and with other departments. With Commands, the ADM deals directly with Commanders and their senior staffs; within national headquarters, the incumbent deals with Group Principals and attends Information Management Committee, Program Control Board and daily Executive Committee meetings. The ADM also attends the Armed Forces Council and the Defence Management Committee, as appropriate.

Is accountable for agency-wide leadership to ensure that the statistical methodology used by all surveys is sound, statistically efficient and follows accepted standards; to provide leadership for and management of information processing in the agency; and to maintain the professional and technical reputation of the agency and its products.

Organization Structure

This is one of seven positions at the first managerial level reporting to the Chief Statistician. The others are Assistant Chief Statistician, National Accounts and Analytical Studies; Assistant Chief Statistician, Business and Trade Statistics; Assistant Chief Statistician, Communications and Operations Branch; Assistant Chief Statistician, Social, Institutions and Labour Statistics; Assistant Chief Statistician, Management Services; and Assistant Chief Statistician, Analysis and Development.

Specific functions of the three positions reporting to the Assistant Chief Statistician, Methodology and Informatics, are as follows:

Director General, Informatics, (staff of 350) is accountable for the development and implementation of informatics strategies, plans and policies for the agency; the economic and efficient management of a large data processing centre and an extensive electronic communication network; the provision of informatics services to the agency, including regional offices; the establishment, development and maintenance of a high level of informatics technology serving as the cornerstone of the agency's technical infrastructure.

Director General, Methodology, (staff of 355) is accountable for planning, organizing and directing the development, implementation, analysis and evaluation of the statistical methodology underlying all agency programs; the integrity of the statistical methods and procedures used throughout the agency's broad program of household, institutional, business and agricultural surveys, including the 10-year and 5-year censuses; and the agency's program of development and dissemination of sub-provincial data from administrative records.

Director General, Classification Systems, (staff of 382) is accountable for the development and promulgation of classification systems; the standardization of economic, social and geographic concepts; the development, enhancement, and maintenance of the business register as a major integration instrument of survey-taking; the exploitation of taxation and other administrative data; the development and marketing of geographical products; and the agency's meta data system.

Nature And Scope

The agency provides statistics that help Canadians better understand their country, its population, resources, economy, society and culture. Objective statistical information provides a solid foundation for informed decisions by elected representatives, businesses, unions, non-profit organizations and individual Canadians.

The branch provides leadership for survey methodology and design, questionnaire design, standards, classification systems, business registers, quality control methods, development of administrative records as alternative data sources, computer systems development and maintenance, planning and management of data processing facilities, internal information processing services, office automation, information bank systems, geographical and mapping services and electronic dissemination technology development. The branch is of central importance to the execution of the agency's mandate. Since users can seldom directly assess the quality of statistics, they must rely on the reputation of the agency for meeting high technical standards.

The Assistant Chief Statistician (ACS) provides corporate leadership to ensure that the agency's statistical methodology for all surveys is sound, statistically efficient and follows accepted standards. The incumbent provides methodological leadership and know-how in the design of all surveys and in the measurement of their quality; and underpins household and business surveys and the development and calibration of alternative data sources to direct collection, typically involving administrative records. The incumbent provides authoritative advice and direction on a significant number of complex and concurrent surveys, such as business surveys that are the basis for all economic and financial statistics, including the System of National Accounts, as well as household and institutional surveys.

The ACS acts as an agent of change in the agency by designing and implementing innovative projects that increase operational efficiency and expand output. A major challenge facing the ACS is to provide innovative leadership in the agency's efforts to reduce respondent burden and program costs by using administrative data rather than direct data collection, wherever possible.

The ACS oversees the development and maintenance of the agency's classification systems, the standardization of economic and social concepts and the comprehensive documentation of agency surveys, in order to render coherent statistical outputs.

Another challenge facing the ACS is to develop and maintain the agency's information technology infrastructure. The incumbent must ensure that the agency can manage information gathering and processing activities, which involve several hundred dissimilar systems, ranging from very large applications-the population census, which is at the root of the formulae underlying the federal equalization payments and cost-sharing arrangements-to sophisticated interactive data modelling applications. The incumbent must also ensure the provision of secure and reliable employee access to the agency's network, as well as public access to databases and Web sites for dissemination purposes. The ACS oversees storage and accessible maintenance of the data holdings of Canada's central statistical office; development of general processing systems, based on advanced statistical methodology for sampling and estimation; data editing and correction; confidentiality protection; and management of software for the agency's operations, planning and management of information technology hardware, communications systems and security, which can process confidential information securely while allowing public access to released data.

The ACS provides advice and recommendations to the Chief Statistician on statistical methodology and the use of informatics to support the achievement of agency objectives. As a member of the agency management team, the incumbent participates in operational and corporate policy and management decision making. The incumbent represents the agency's interests in discussions with central agencies, other government departments, non-governmental organizations and industry representatives to resolve issues related to methodologies, standards, data quality and access to databases and Web sites.

Director General, Government On-Line, (staff of 3) is responsible for providing government-wide leadership in developing and implementing integrated strategic policies, frameworks, approaches and initiatives to articulate, promote and advance the government's agenda for enhancing access for Canadians to government information and services.

Nature And Scope

The Department's mandate is to foster Canadian business development, fair and efficient markets and Canadian competitiveness and economic growth by integrating key levers of economic development; providing strategic intelligence and analysis to businesses; regulating trade; reducing internal barriers to trade; and increasing productivity and competitiveness, while protecting the interests of consumers.

One of the government's high priorities is to make Canada a world leader in developing and using an advanced information infrastructure to achieve its social and economic goals. In response to the recommendations of the Information Highway Advisory Council (IHAC), the government has committed itself to enabling Canadians to conduct business transactions with the government electronically. The Department, as the sponsor of IHAC, has a leadership role and is the model provider of electronic commerce. To lead Canadian industry in increasing productivity and competitiveness, while protecting the interests of the consumer, the Department must ensure that appropriate information is disseminated effectively to targeted groups in the Canadian business community. These objectives have become increasingly dependent on the effective use of information management and information technology (IM/IT).

In this context, the Executive Director / CIO provides corporate leadership in establishing and managing a centre of excellence dedicated to promoting and fostering effective working relationships with senior officials of international, federal, provincial and municipal governments and agencies, as well as with a wide range of senior-level contacts in the private and public sectors, in order to focus on critical aspects of program and service delivery to Canadian industry via the Internet, as part of the Government On-Line and electronic commerce initiatives. The incumbent provides leadership in establishing a climate for creative thinking and for the formulation of policies, objectives and goals that adopt new technologies and processes that keep traditional industries competitive, while launching new industries for emerging and expanding international markets.

The Executive Director / CIO identifies and develops synergies in the context of the Minister's overall mandate for a portfolio of 13 agencies and departments. Together, these organizations have an impact on economic growth and development by focussing their efforts on promoting innovation through science and technology; providing the information, advice and financing support to promote expansion; and ensuring a fair, efficient and competitive marketplace. The incumbent fosters and promotes technological advances and development opportunities that maximize the portfolio's impact on jobs and growth.

The Executive Director / CIO develops and implements a strategic framework for the optimal use of information and advanced processing tools for the transition to a knowledge-driven department. These information products include benchmarking studies and databases, analyses of markets, trade and investment, technology and innovation, and industrial research. The incumbent directs the provision of infrastructure and support services required to effectively deliver new ways of interacting with clients through information technology; streamlining of management practices; renewing and revitalizing of a multidisciplinary, highly trained workforce; communicating what the Department does; and encouraging the highest standard of public service.

A major challenge for the Executive / CIO is to build communications links with a broad constituency, while ensuring that infrastructure developments are integrated, that there is no unplanned duplication, and that technology transfer is efficient and timely. The incumbent must ensure a high degree of satisfaction in meeting the requirements of a broad and diverse client base for communications, information technology and strategic information products. He or she must develop and integrate suitable strategies, plans and a responsive organization to deliver results to a growing client base, to expand Canada's intellectual resources and to advance a knowledge-based economy. The position has an impact not only on the exchange of information with the Canadian business community but also on the way that community does business.

The Executive Director / CIO leads the electronic commerce initiative, which has greater potential to transform the Department's value-added services than do on-line information services. The Strategis Web site contains an organized and integrated suite of information products and services reflecting all aspects of the Department's mandate, including industry, technology management, innovation and marketplace services. It contains millions of documents, making it the largest business Web site in the country, and is accessed daily by thousands of clients worldwide. The incumbent must have a strategic vision to expand its potential, improve its content, cultivate partnerships and expand the client base.

The CBSCs are a channel for meeting the needs of small businesses that require walk-in or dial-up service, and they support and complement Strategis. CBSCs are located in every province, and the number of points of service is continuously expanding, in conjunction with partners. The Executive Director / CIO designs and maintains information support systems for the CBSCs, such as databases, communications paths and technology, upon which the system rests.

The generation of revenue presents a number of challenges to the Executive Director / CIO in that he or she must ensure the development of unique and specialized products, the continued evolution of existing world-class strategic information products and the strategy for marketing all products and technology services of the Department to existing and prospective clients. The incumbent must take a new risk-sharing approach by investing in technology through partnerships with the private sector and, at the same time, exercise the two-way exchange of information provided under global information dissemination with professional associations, academics and governments. The incumbent negotiates access for Canadian companies to United States' industrial and trade information and meets with foreign representatives interested in using the Department's information systems, such as NUANS and discovery.

The Executive Director / CIO must explore opportunities to develop and implement new technology strategies and approaches to standards and security practices; to advance and represent the interests of the Department in these matters; and to assure the public of their privacy. The incumbent directs the development and implementation of emergency and business resumption plans to ensure that the Department's information systems will continue to operate during emergencies. The incumbent also directs the development of an IT security plan that ensures the integrity of information and access to Internet sites through internal checks and provisions developed for public safety and privacy and for preventing the dissemination of flawed information.

The Executive Director / CIO supports the Deputy Minister as Chair of TIMS in handling government-wide IM/IT issues and is called upon to chair interdepartmental and government-industry technology-related steering committees. As such, and in his or her capacity as a government leader for Government On-Line, the incumbent influences the future directions and use of information technology in the federal government by providing leadership on information management issues, and assists other departmental committees in enhancing and standardizing the information environment to ensure an integrated corporate approach to information management.

It also formulates policies, strategies and programs that are consistent with the government's socio-economic concerns and interests. The Department has a presence in a large number of missions abroad and has numerous immigration offices in Canada, all of which help in selecting, processing and monitoring immigrants and refugees, and managing the visitor program.

The Information Management and Technology Branch is responsible for ensuring the delivery of effective information systems and technology solutions within the Department and externally, in partnership with a large number of client organizations, in order to provide the means for the Department to fundamentally change and continuously improve policy development so as to meet corporate goals and deliver programs and services.

The Director provides expertise and support for the strategic management of information, and the development and implementation of frameworks and initiatives to guide the integration of information technologies into the Department's overall program delivery processes and procedures. In this regard, the Director is responsible for providing advice and guidance to senior management to ensure the continuous improvement of the branch's IM strategies and planning activities, involving its IM programs, IH, IT, and related business improvement options.

The Director provides leadership, advice and guidance on IM policies, programs, services and strategies to individual clients at headquarters and in the regions throughout Canada, and to missions abroad to optimize the Department's alignment of business lines and information technologies, holdings and systems, to facilitate the development, improvement and delivery of integrated IT systems and IM services for the Department.

The Director is responsible for the management of IH, as well as the planning, development, acquisition, implementation and enhancement of IT in support of the Department's operations. The challenge is to plan and organize the delivery of the departmental IH services, while ensuring that they reflect the current state of technology and progressive IM practices. The rapid evolution of client needs and technologies challenges the incumbent to adjust the services provided in order to ensure that the Department's systems needs are met in a timely, efficient and cost-effective manner.

The Director provides functional leadership by remaining abreast of evolving IM theories, business strategies and management practices to ensure the proper management of the Department's IH, including establishing the necessary linkages between the Department's IH and the technologies that are required to manage and access those holdings in order to improve the delivery, use and management of IT and information resources.

In discharging this responsibility, the Director must ensure and maintain an optimal balance between the requirement to provide services that are efficient and responsive to the needs and priorities of a mix of clients at headquarters and regional offices and at missions abroad, while ensuring that these services are cost-effective from a departmental perspective and in compliance with central agency directives.

The Director works with the senior management team to resolve issues concerning the availability and management of information, including the feasibility of introducing technological solutions to meet program delivery requirements, the funding of systems development and maintenance activities and the level of services and support to be provided by the Directorate. The Director also plans and manages the evaluation of newly developed systems, procedures or practices to determine whether the objectives were achieved according to accepted standards and user satisfaction and expectations.

The Director works with officials of central agencies and other government departments to investigate, evaluate and adopt common systems. The incumbent is expected to identify and recommend joint initiatives with other departments in the context of federal IM/IT streamlining initiatives. The incumbent is further required to rationalize the selection and use of new and advanced technologies and to determine future directions, strategies and plans in an environment characterized by rapid technological change and changes in government operations, program delivery requirements and client expectations.

As a member of the Branch Management Committee, the Director is responsible for contributing to the development of Branch objectives, policies, initiatives and operational plans. The incumbent is in frequent contact with senior executives throughout the client area and has extensive contact with the private sector in negotiating contract agreements to obtain specialized services, and with other government departments in exchanging information on information processing and management opportunities, trends and developments.
