Thank you very much.
The transformation of pay administration initiative comprises two projects: modernization and the consolidation of pay services for various departments in a new pay centre located in Miramichi, New Brunswick.
We are currently requesting through this exercise $23 million for the pay administration project. The pay administration project is the replacement of the old pay system and the implementation of new business processes. The $23 million is to complete the definition phase of the project. The definition phase of the project was to design the IT architecture finalizing the project plan, the detailed costing, buying some IT equipment to prepare for the development, and to pay for the project team. A sum of $4.7 million is required to complete the definition phase.
