Excellence, Innovation and Wellness®
The Architecture, Information Management and Project Management Office (AIP) provides essential expertise on architecture development on I&IT projects, information management and project management to clients within Ontario’s Public Service. The goal is to give quality, cost-effective assistance to enhance government services.
AIP’s journey to excellence began in 2010, resulting in Bronze certification from Excellence Canada. From 2013 onwards, AIP went through a period of major organizational changes that resulted in significant staffing growth and broader responsibilities; the office achieved Silver and Gold levels of EIW after a successful transition. In 2015, AIP reached Platinum level and was also certified for ISO 9001:2008, becoming one of the first Ontario Government I&IT organizations to do so. With an entrenched quality management system, AIP pursues excellence in service delivery for clients by helping them meet their business needs in the most cost-effective manner.

“The Architecture, Information Management & PMO Branch (AIP) exemplifies excellence in everything they do, from their commitment to continuous improvement to their focus on recognition of branch staff. Congratulations AIP, on being the first branch in the OPS to receive the distinguished honour of the Canada Order of Excellence Award.”
