Appendix D: Reference Materials

Three categories of reference materials are key in understanding the development and contents of the GC IM Program – Business Problem Assessment.

Business Transformation Enablement Program (BTEP)

The IM Program Transformation Project is using the Business Transformation Enablement Program (BTEP) Strategic Design and Planning (SD&P) methodology.  The methodology documentation and other BTEP materials can be found at:

Project Management Documents

Three project management documents form the basis of work on this project:

  1. Government of Canada Information Management Transformation Initiatives Project Charter

  2. Government of Canada Information Management Transformation Initiatives Project Tailored BTEP Approach

  3. Government of Canada Information Management Transformation Initiatives Project Consultation and Collaboration Strategy

Authoritative Source Documents

Significant work has been done over the past number of years analysing the state of IM in the GC.  The IM Program Transformation Project selected a broad cross-section of such documents and reports – considered both authoritative in the federal domain and broadly representative of the current IM space within that domain – to harvest statements for use in the problem analysis in the Vision Phase.

A sample list of documents is shown in the table below.
