E.  ORGANIZATION

Due to the variable delivery expertise, scope and variability of projects and responsibilities/authority there are various possible organizational structures; the project organization will be determined by the Deputy Ministers' Oversight Committee. The organization possibilities and Chairs/Co-Chairs are shown in Figure 1.

The DMPSC will consist of the Chair and standing Deputy Minister Members. The members will be drawn from:

■  Deputy Minister, Treasury Board,

■  Deputy Minister, Infrastructure,

■  Deputy Minister, Transportation,

■  Deputy Minister, Service Alberta,

■  Deputy Minister, Advanced Education and Technology,

■  Deputy Minister, Education,

■  Deputy Minister, Health and Wellness,

■  Deputy Minister, Finance and Enterprise,

■  Deputy Minister, Justice and Attorney General,

■  Member from Institution (Health Board, Post-Secondary Institution, School Board, etc).

For Cross Ministry and Government of Alberta projects, a minimum of three members are required and for Cross Ministry P3 projects the Deputy Minister of Finance and Enterprise and the Deputy Minister of Justice will be members of the committee.

A Vice-Chair may be appointed at the discretion of the Chair who will act for the Chair in the Chair's absence or at the direction of the Chair.

The Chair may add additional Deputy Minister Members or external members (e.g. City Manager) for specific projects and may request the attendance and assistance of other Deputy Ministers, or such other persons as recommended by the Deputy Minister responsible for managing the project for the Chair and/or the Committee, to carry out their responsibilities.

The Committee will convene at the call of the Chair, at the direction of the President of Treasury Board or at the request of the Chair, ADM Project Review Committee.

Committee recommendations will normally be reached by consensus. In the absence of consensus, a majority decision will prevail. The Chair and all members are eligible to vote.

Committee members may designate alternates to attend meetings on their behalf; however, alternates are not entitled to vote on Committee recommendations. Alternates may participate in the discussion relating to any recommendation.

The provision of a Secretary to the Committee and administrative support to the Committee will be assigned by the Chair/Co-chair.

Figure 1 - Potential Organization

The Chair, Deputy Ministers' Oversight Committee will conclude as to whether a project is a "Single Ministry" or "Cross Ministry" project.

Single Ministry Projects are projects where 1 ministry is the program and infrastructure delivery ministry and the results of that project affect only that 1 ministry.

Cross Ministry Projects are projects affecting more than 1 ministry and include projects for supported organizations such as health boards, post-secondary institutions and school boards.

Government of Alberta (GoA) projects include any non-P3 infrastructure project run by a ministry and include projects for government-owned infrastructure, such as roads and buildings, and infrastructure for Supported Infrastructure Organizations such as Alberta Health Services, post-secondary institutions and school boards.
