Today’s digital landscape is one of relentless and disruptive change with the GC challenged to anticipate, adapt and keep pace. This includes the renewal of SSC ensuring it is properly resourced and aligned to deliver common IT infrastructure that is reliable and secure. Through the Minister’s mandate letter, the Minister has been assigned the lead role for the digital strategy and programming at the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat as well as SSC. The creation of Canada’s first stand-alone Minister of Digital Government reflects the importance the Government of Canada (GC) places on becoming a digital-first organization that will benefit all Canadians. It delivers network, data centre, e-mail, security and workplace technology to federal departments and agencies, and supports the technology needs of over 200,000 employees. SSC provides the digital backbone of the federal government which underpins essential services and programs. Minister responsible for Shared Services Canada Plans at a glance I encourage you to review SSC’s Departmental Plan to learn how SSC supports the GC’s Digital Vision. These efforts will help the public service collaborate more effectively, deliver essential services and allow the federal government to move at a speed and scale to deliver the best possible services to all Canadians while also protecting data and information. Enabling government-wide transformations through the creation of standards, revised services, and a new funding model.
