TITLE
IT Project Managers – Departmental Solutions Implementation
BACKGROUND
The current state of the Canadian Intellectual Property Office's (CIPO) Information Technology (IT) systems impacts the organization’s ability to fulfill its vision and mandate in an effective manner. Outdated IT systems also constrain CIPO from operating efficiently, and have affected its capacity to meet modern-day demands and business needs of its customers. Furthermore, the cost of maintaining multiple systems that cannot be integrated poses a serious financial and operational risk for the organization.
In 2013, a CIPO IT Modernization initiative was established to replace outdated, aging, costly and inflexible legacy IT systems with modern, industry proven, component-based, agile technologies – while concurrently, aligning to and leveraging Government of Canada enterprise standards and solutions.
CIPO IT Modernization is concerned with providing the organization with efficient and responsive information technology systems that support CIPO’s ability to encourage innovation and respond to the Intellectual Property Community’s business needs, while also helping maintain a dynamic regulatory framework to respond to business Intellectual Property needs.
As such the two areas of focus for CIPO IT Modernization are:
improving the online customer experience, and
transitioning the organization to a modernized set of industry proven technologies.
The modernization of CIPO’s IT infrastructure will be achieved through a carefully scoped and executed sequence of IT projects over a 5-7 year time frame, to ensure that CIPO is able to learn from and build upon early implementations. This iterative process, known as the "component-based" approach, will ensure that continuous improvements in capabilities and efficiencies can be progressively realized as the portfolio of projects unfolds for maximum realization of benefits. The projects are being managed under an umbrella which is referred to as IT Modernization.
A Program Management approach is being taken for CIPO IT Modernization wherein:
Individual projects are independently initiated, executed and closed in accordance with Innovation, Sciences and Economic Development Canada’s Project Stage-Gate Framework and governance;
Multiple projects and activities are coordinated at a “portfolio level”, ensuring the on-going alignment of project activities to CIPO’s strategic objectives and to maintain appropriate oversight and management of collective project risks;
A governance structure composed of executives from CIPO and Innovation, Sciences and Economic Development Canada, provides independent oversight of the project management teams; and
A formal review through Innovation, Sciences and Economic Development Canada’s Audit and Evaluation Branch has just been completed and the management action plan is being shared with the departments’ Audit Committee against the auditor’s recommendations. Yearly reviews are planned for all major IT Modernization projects in progress.
