Royalty Case Management Expansion to Add Enforcement Tiers and Compliance Activities for Additional Business Units

TITLE
Royalty Case Management Expansion to Add Enforcement Tiers and Compliance Activities for Additional Business Units

BACKGROUND
Indian Oil and Gas Canada (IOGC) is an organization committed to managing and administering oil and gas resources on First Nation reserve lands. It is a special operating agency within the Lands and Economic Development Sector of Indigenous Services Canada (ISC ‘the Department’).

IOGC maintains three (3) IT systems:

• Resource Information Management System 1 (RIMS1): IOGC’s database system for administering the oil and natural gas activities conducted on First Nation reserve lands. RIMS1 is a mid-sized Oracle based application system that was developed in 1990 and continues to evolve as the business changes. The system serves as an integrated operational database for the Planning and Corporate Services, Lease and Royalty Administration, and Regulatory Compliance Directorates of IOGC.

• Royalty Management (RM) System: IOGC’s updated royalty management system that manages the complex information required to support royalty administration and calculation that was completed as part of the Resource Information Management System 2 (RIMS2) Project. It includes data exchange with RIMS1, and;

• Royalty Case Management (RCM) system; The RCM system has been customized from the Government of Canada’s GCCase Dynamics 365 (D365) Customer Relationship Management (CRM) service module to track non-compliance of royalty obligations and is currently being migrated onto the Department’s Enterprise platform and converted to the Cloud Client Relationship Management. The RCM system receives base data from the RM, including royalty tax payor, band/reserve, contract, well and lease-related data, and was also part of the RIMS2 Project.
There are three Tiers currently in RCM for tracking the non-compliance of royalty obligations which include:
– Tier 1 – create the case for non-compliance of royalty obligations. Send the 14 and then 30 day notice of intent to deem. No response? Go to Tier 2.
– Tier 2 – deeming exercise and risk/impact assessment. No response after 30 days? Go to Tier 3.
– Tier 3 – export the case package to enforcement. 90 day checkpoints.

OBJECTIVE
The objective of the work required of this contract is to expand RCM to:
1) Build additional tiers to encompass the enforcement process used when royalty obligations are still not in compliance after Tier 1 and Tier 2 (build Tier 3 and additional enforcement Tiers), including data exchange with RM, RIMS1 or others, and integration with Outlook, GCDocs, or other systems as required;
2) Add new components, tiers, data exchange and integration, as required, to track the non- compliance activities of the other areas of IOGC’s business including, but not limited to, environment, geology, and leasing and link them to the enforcement process, and;
3) Provide for reporting including summary reports to be shared with First Nations summarizing outstanding non-compliance issues on their lands, as well as reports that list the status of non-compliance issues in each category.
