NRC Accountability Framework
NRC reports directly to the Parliament of Canada through the Minister of Industry. NRC works in partnership with the members of the Industry Portfolio to leverage complementary resources and exploit synergies in areas such as innovation of firms through S&T, SMEs and economic growth of Canadian communities. The NRC Council provides strategic direction and advice to the President and reviews organizational performance. The President is the leader, responsible for fulfilling corporate strategies and delivering results. Five Vice Presidents (Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Engineering, Technology and Industry Support and Corporate Services) are responsible for a portfolio of research institutes, programs and centres. Figure 4-1 provides an overview of NRC’s organization.

Organizational Sustainability
Highly qualified professionals (scientists, engineers, technicians and others) in conjunction with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment are prerequisites to performing at the leading-edge of R&D. NRC faced challenges in sustaining these key resources and continued to focus on strategies to address these challenges.
Implementing NRC’s Strategy: Science at Work for Canada and advancing the federal S&T Strategy: Mobilizing Science and Technology to Canada’s Advantage
Corporate business plan – NRC established its corporate business plan in the first quarter of 2007-08. This business plan reflects key commitments and decisions of the NRC Senior Executive Committee and sets organizational direction for three fiscal years (2007-08 to 2009-10). The plan puts forward an approach for helping to enhance the financial flexibility of NRC, while ensuring financial and non-financial resources fully align in support of priority NRC programs. It also outlines the steps NRC is taking to implement new horizontal R&D initiatives focused on key industrial and social issues for Canada. Heightened collaboration with the private, public and academic sectors is a key theme throughout the document. The corporate business plan will be updated on an annual basis to reflect changing internal and external factors, as well as the ongoing decisions and priorities of both the federal government and the NRC senior executive.
An integrated solution to planning, risk and performance management – In support of the federal S&T strategy modern approach to management, NRC began the implementation of an integrated management framework in 2007-08 for providing senior management and NRC Institutes, Branches and Programs (I/B/Ps) with the planning and performance information they need to support integrated decision-making, resource allocation and functional planning (human resources, capital assets and finance). This cross-functional change initiative is responsible for embedding modern management processes and systems for the integrated framework and has a mandate until April 2010. In addition to the integrated corporate business plan, NRC developed a performance measurement framework aligned with its strategy as well as business plans from each of its I/B/Ps. The integrated planning effort supported internal management decision-making and contributed to delivering a fully populated Program Activity Architecture to the Treasury Board Secretariat.
Understanding the impact of federally performed S&T – In 2007-08, NRC participated actively with the Policy Research Initiative (PRI) aimed at improving the government’s understanding of the impact of federally performed S&T. NRC has taken the lead on a study to determine the best practices for measuring S&T impacts on behalf of PRI to address the S&T strategy policy commitment of increasing accountability to Canadians.
Strategies for sustainable resources – Faced with ongoing resource pressures, NRC is making more strategic choices regarding the use of resources. In 2007-08, this included:
- Addressing funding issues – NRC continued to prioritize key R&D and technology and industry support activities, initiatives and programs in the context of the organization’s strategy. It also produced strategies and mechanisms for ongoing reallocation and conduct efficiency improvement reviews to ensure effective investment of resources for sustainability in priority areas. NRC initiated a new organizational resource allocation process in the fourth quarter of 2007-08, requiring all NRC I/B/Ps to develop and submit business plans on an annual basis. To secure funding, these plans must demonstrate alignment with the priorities outlined in both the NRC strategy and the federal science and technology strategy. NRC Senior Executive Committee reviewed all of the I/B/P plans, identified priority initiatives within the plans and funded those initiatives that were deemed essential in order for NRC to execute its strategy, fulfill its mandate and help deliver on the federal science and technology strategy. In 2007-08, initial steps were also taken to identify opportunities for operational efficiencies. Notably, NRC initiated audits on organizational-wide facilities and information technology. The results of these audits, which are scheduled to be completed in 2008-09, are expected to identify potential areas for efficiency gains while highlighting priorities that may require enhanced investments to ensure their long-term sustainability.
- Talent Management – NRC continued to move toward the development of an organization-wide Human Resources Management (HRM) strategy, which will be integrated with the corporate business plan. During 2007-08, the Human Resources Branch (HRB) prepared a business plan for 2008-11, which represents the first iteration of an integrated HRM plan for NRC. Throughout 2007-08, NRC continued to focus on previously identified HRM priorities and the development of new HRM strategies to support NRC’s future directions. The following are highlights of some of the progress made in 2007-08 with respect to key HRM priorities:
- Integrated HR Planning – The HRB Business Plan 2008-11 incorporated the results of a comprehensive environmental scan which identified HR trends and challenges including an aging population, a decrease in the working-age population, employee generational diversity and increased immigration. The scan also revealed the need to align HRM policies with the NRC goal of becoming more integrated and agile. The environmental scan was supplemented by a review of all I/B/P business plans (approximately 30 plans) to identify common HRM requirements. The HRB business plan incorporated strategies related to governance and accountability, talent attraction and retention and talent management (including recruitment, retention, promotion and development talent critical to the advancement of NRC’s overall strategy).
- Classification Renewal – In 2007-08, NRC approved an initiative to bring classification practices in line with NRC’s strategy. The NRC Senior Executive Committee approved a plan to renew the classification framework for all positions at NRC. The initiative, as outlined in the HRB Business Plan, will take approximately three years to complete. Four key projects were identified: a renewal of the MG (Management Category) classification standard; a review and update of the RO (Research Officer) and RCO (Research Council Officer) policy and promotion criteria; a renewal of the TO (Technical Officer) standard; and a renewal of all the other classification standards. This initiative promises to improve NRC’s ability to attract, retain and reward the talent that the organization has and requires to continue to develop and implement its strategy.
- Leadership Development – In 2007-08, NRC continued to develop and implement its Leadership Enrichment and Development (LEAD) program. A selection process was undertaken to attract the next round of participants. This process attracted 44 applicants and NRC identified 17 employees for the organization's intensive leadership development program; those who were unsuccessful received feedback on their performance in the selection process as well as access to a multi-source competency assessment and time with a consultant to understand results and formulate a learning plan.
- HR Performance Management – In 2007-08, several priorities were identified related to optimizing individual and organizational performance, much of which has been captured in the HRB Business Plan 2008-11. NRC started reviewing its HR performance management processes, to manage consistently performance at all levels of the organization. NRC commenced the delivery of performance management training in collaboration with bargaining agents. In May-June 2007, NRC took steps to improve Management Accountability Agreements (MAAs) as part of the performance planning and review process for the Management (MG) category. Approximately 95% of NRC's intact management teams participated in 1-day workshops focused on completing MAAs. Workshops were aimed at linking individual performance agreements to the objectives of the organization and to integrated business planning.
- Turnover – Turnover has been relatively consistent for the past three years, with turnover of continuing staff being considerably lower than that of NRC's contingent workforce.

- Learning Strategy – As outlined in the 2007-08 NRC Report on Plans and Priorities, NRC had planned to develop a comprehensive learning plan in 2007-08. However, this activity was deferred in order first to focus on the HRM environmental scan and identification of broader HRM priorities. The need for a comprehensive learning strategy was once again identified at various levels of the business planning process and as such, was incorporated in the HRB Business Plan 2008-11. An organization-wide learning needs analysis was initiated and continues.
- Collective Agreements – NRC’s Labour Relations (LR) Group continued to negotiate and administer collective agreements on behalf of NRC and maintained ongoing consultations with the two Bargaining Agents representing the majority of NRC employees: the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada (PIPSC) and the Research Council Employees’ Association (RCEA). Ten collective agreements are administered by the LR group, three of which were negotiated during the 2007-08 period with three having gone before Arbitration Boards for eventual final determination in April of 2008.
- Official Languages (OL) – NRC continued with its commitment to its Official Languages Program objectives. The number of NRC executives meeting the linguistic requirements of their positions remained virtually the same year over year, due to the hiring of executives in bilingual non-imperative positions and the successful achievement of other executives in reaching their linguistic goals. The OL Advisor continued to meet personally with each newly hired executive to establish a language-training plan when needed and to secure their commitment to meet OL Program goals. Overall, roughly 89% of NRC employees meet the linguistic requirements of their positions (virtually all of those who have not yet achieved their linguistic requirements are currently in a language training program or have established a training plan). NRC’s Consultative Committee on Official Languages’ activities continued to be recognized as a best practices leader by a number of federal organizations. Again, in 2007-08, NRC received a number of unsolicited requests to present its OL best practices for organizations such as the Canada Border Service Agency, Justice Canada, and Fisheries and Oceans. NRC also presented to the Pacific Federal Council in Vancouver at its request.
- Staffing and Recruitment – During the reporting period, NRC recruited 526 employees bringing the total number of NRC staff to 4,2619. Contributing to the federal S&T Strategy People Advantage, over 1,231 students, Post-doctoral Fellows (PDFs) and Research Associates (RAs) worked on research teams at NRC institutes. These individuals had the opportunity to work in a challenging research environment with leading experts in their fields thereby gaining valuable experience and training. In 2007-08, 491 graduate students, 384 summer and co-op students, 151 Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council Visiting PDFs and 151 RAs worked at NRC.
- Integrated S & T initiatives – As an active member of the ADM S&T Integration Board and its related working/task groups, NRC continued to work with other science-based departments and agencies and central agencies to address common management issues having an impact on federal science, this past year. This included participating in interdepartmental efforts to address human resource challenges. The Integration Board’s efforts are currently concentrated in the following four HR areas: leadership, retention, recruitment and learning and professional development.
- Ongoing HR Services and Support – In 2007-08, NRC’s HR Client Relations Management Group designed and administered an on-line survey of all internal clients to gauge their level of satisfaction with HR services and support received locally. The completion rate was 48% and the results demonstrated a very high level of satisfaction with the products and the approach of the local HR service providers.
9 - salaried employees, as of 31 March 2008
- Maintaining and upgrading NRC S&T infrastructure – NRC continues to recapitalize its assets through the appropriation of $5.7 million used to address the most pressing needs of the infrastructure with a focus being applied to health and safety and life cycle management. Some recapitalization projects completed in 2007-08 were:
- Replace cooling tower lines (M55, Ottawa)
- Building controls upgrade (M55, Ottawa)
- Replace air handling units (U70,Ottawa)

- Developing three-year NRC Communications Outlook – NRC completed design and began implementation of its strategic communications framework encompassing internal, external, corporate marketing and stakeholder relations components. The new framework positions, profiles and promotes the organization’s unique contributions to the federal S&T strategy, NRC’s own support to industry and its creation of true economic value and social benefits for Canada and all Canadians. In addition to an overarching three-year corporate communications strategy, NRC completed its strategy for internal communications, began development of sub-strategies for the other components of the framework and prepared a business plan for the function aligned with the NRC Strategy. NRc also began implementation of a new organization structure for its communications function. All of these changes supported implementation of the recommendations from its comprehensive Communications Situation Assessment. In addition, NRC continued its involvement in interdepartmental and government-wide horizontal S&T and innovation initiatives, including S&T Integration Board Communications and the Government of Canada S&T web portal.
- Strengthened Internal Audit Function – In 2007-08, NRC further strengthened its internal audit function in accordance with the new Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat Policy on Internal Audit. The President of NRC approved five internal audit reports upon the recommendation by the Audit Committee. NRC posted two of the reports on its website (http://www.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/aboutUs/audit_e.html) in January 2008 and expects to post the remaining three reports shortly. NRC also started six other internal audits and they were in various stages of completion by the end of March 31, 2008. NRC created new audit positions bringing the number from 3.5 to 5 FTEs using the Incremental financial resources provided by Treasury Board. Rigorous recruiting efforts resulted in all of these positions staffed by professional qualified and experienced staff.
The activities outlined above as part of NRC’s strategy implementation initiatives will help address Management Accountability Framework commitments.
Implement Action Plan on recommendations of the Auditor General of Canada–Overall, NRC has made very positive progress in implementing the OAG’s recommendations and is actively addressing the recommendations provided in the OAG’s February 2007 Status Report. Related accomplishments include:
- Revised role of Council and membership profile;
- Approved Corporate Business Plan;
- Draft Human Resources Branch Business Plan pending SEC approval by March 31, 2008;
- Development of the Management, Resources and Results Management Structure (MRRS) for NRC including key performance indicators and targets; and
- Development of the Balanced Scorecard aligned to the Corporate Business Plan.
Work still requiring progress includes recommendations pertaining to the collection and reporting of performance data and project management. However, significant activity has been taken toward addressing them.
