SECTION IV – OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST

Internal Services

Consistent with Treasury Board Secretariat’s guidance associated with the implementation of the Management, Resources and Results Structure Policy (MRRS), the Centre has identified the following 10 categories of internal services:

  • Management and Oversight Services
  • Human Resources Management Services
  • Financial Management Services
  • Supply Chain Management
  • Facilities/Asset Management Services
  • Communications Services
  • Information Management Services
  • Information Technology Services
  • Legal Services
  • Other Support Delivery Services

In each internal service area, the Centre continues to be actively engaged in advancing the principles of sound resource management and effective decision-making. For the upcoming planning periods, here are the resources allocated to FINTRAC’s internal services.

Financial Resources ($ millions)

Human Resources

For the Centre to strengthen organizational effectiveness and achieve its priorities while effectively managing this growth phase, it will be critical for the Centre’s internal services functions to plan and undertake a number of important initiatives. For the planning period, these initiatives will include:

  • Improving the Centre’s integrated planning process to enhance decision-making. The Centre’s planning approach will be based on the Program Activity Architecture.
     
  • Ensuring that human resources (HR) planning is an important and integral component of the Centre’s business planning process, thus ensuring that the best HR decisions are made to help achieve business goals and priorities.

In addition, FINTRAC will continue to build on its commitment to being an exemplary employer and sustaining an effective, high performing and healthy work climate.

To maintain a motivated and skilled workforce during the planning period, the Centre will place a special emphasis on the recruitment and selection of new employees. FINTRAC will also seek opportunities to strengthen the Centre’s position with respect to official languages and employment equity.

A fundamental and critical component for FINTRAC as an organization is its commitment to the protection of personal information. FINTRAC will continue to maintain a robust and effective security program, including a full suite of policies and procedures to protect privacy, and prevent the unauthorized disclosure of information.

FINTRAC also seeks to excel in the provision of administrative services including accommodations, procurement, asset management, mail services, information management and translation services. While respecting government policies on accommodation, FINTRAC pays market rent to Public Works and Government Services Canada for the office space it occupies. As such, expenditures for leasing of its office space and associated office fit up costs are part of the operating budget.

The Centre also requires special security enhancements in the facilities it occupies. In 2008-09, FINTRAC will continue implementation of its integrated facilities plan to ensure that the Centre’s facilities meet security requirements, accommodate new employees and contribute to organizational effectiveness.
