Through the Infrastructure Policy and Planning Division, the program develops and coordinates implementation of sound infrastructure strategies for the Government of Ontario, including central agency management of the infrastructure planning process for the Government, support for the development of the capital plan which feeds into the Provincial Budget, development of sector specific infrastructure strategies, negotiation with the federal government on cost-shared infrastructure programs and coordination of infrastructure programs delivered through line ministries.
Through the Ontario Growth Secretariat, the program provides leadership in the implementation of its growth management policy and development and implementation of growth management plans.
Through the Strategic Asset Management Unit, the program achieves effective asset management through strategic review and management of assets, including real estate holdings, to ensure provincially controlled assets produce results.
Through the Agencies Division, the program provides policy advice, issue management and liaison with the ministry's agencies: the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, the Ontario Realty Corporation, Infrastructure Ontario and the Ontario Strategic Infrastructure Financing Authority (OSIFA). The program also provides strategic analysis and leads the development of long-term, sustainable planning and procurement strategies, as well as the implementation of infrastructure best practices.
In support of the government's Renew Ontario infrastructure investment plan, Infrastructure Ontario carries out the implementation and project management of AFP infrastructure projects, while OSIFA offers affordable financing to broader public sector borrowers.
The program also includes capacities to support all aspects of the Ministry's mandate, including communications, strategic planning, financial management and controllership, policy coordination, human resources and accommodation.
