Spending Profile

In 2002-2003, about 20% ($801.6 million) of the CCRA budget was devoted to the Corporate Management and Direction business line. CMD spent a total of $778.9 million.

The largest share of CMD's resources (approximately 47%) was spent on Information Technology (IT). The CCRA's IT function supports two data centres that process 1.7 million transactions per hour. We also maintain about 280 applications, seven mainframe computers and 1,600 LAN servers for some 54,000 CCRA employees (at peak periods) in over 750 locations across Canada.

Exhibit 9: Distribution of Resources Across the Compliance Continuum for CMD Business Line

With the transformation of the CCRA largely complete, CMD's internal support of the business lines is reflected through the results of our modern and innovative management approaches. The CCRA now has in place a strong infrastructure of financial resources, IT, people, and administrative systems to help support the CCRA's achievement of our Compliance Outcome.
