In March 2004, the Treasury Board granted effective project approval (EPA) for the implementation of the Expenditure Management Information System (EMIS) project. A scheduled internal audit in late 2004 found a number of project-related deficiencies.

In October 2006, the Treasury Board considered a renewed Business Case for EMIS and granted EPA for the BOSR project as Phase B of a replanned EMIS strategy.

In December 2007, EMIS was launched, and the new systems replaced the former legacy systems. Phase B is therefore now deemed complete. Some funding was reprofiled to 2008-09 for post-implementation activities, such as archiving of old data.

The new EMIS Strategic Plan divides work into the following four distinct phases:

A―Conceptual Architecture and Design
B―BOSR
C―Results Information Integration (RII)
D―Actual Expenditures Information Integration (AEII)

Phase A―Conceptual Architecture and Design was completed in early 2006.

Phase B―BOSR focussed on the replacement of existing, at-risk Budget Office functionality with a single integrated solution. As a result of this integration, internal Secretariat business processes are streamlined and rationalized.

Preliminary project approval (PPA) for Phases C and D may be sought in 2008-09.
