Program Activity Architecture 2009–2010
What is a Program Activity Architecture (PAA)?
The Program Activity Architecture outlines the Canada School's strategic outcome, program activities and related departmental activities.
Under the Management, Resources and Results Structures Policy and under the Instruction to Departments for Developing a Management, Resources and Results Structure, departments and agencies must:
- Identify and group related program activities and link them logically to the strategic outcome(s) they support;
- Provide the framework to link planned resource allocations to each program activity at all levels of the PAA and against which financial results are reported;
- Provide the framework to link expected results and performance measures to each program activity at all levels of the PAA and for which actual results are reported;
- Provide the framework for those responsible for program activities at each level of the PAA so they can commit to the results they intend to achieve with the resources they have been allocated and for which they report inside and outside the department;
- Establish the structure for Estimates display and parliamentary reporting;
- Serve as the basis for resource allocation by Parliament, the Treasury Board, and departmental management; and,
- Provide the foundation for constructing any horizontal program activity architectures involving more than one department.
Strategic Outcome
Public Servants have the common knowledge and the leadership and management competencies they require to fulfil their responsibilities in serving Canadians.
