Requisition Title: Project Manager/Leader – Level 3
Location: Oshawa, ON
Duration: 6 months
Project Background
The purpose of the project is to bring the branch’s non-tax debt inventory into its existing tax information
technology solution OntTax and apply the use of enhanced collections tools. This will provide a single source of
collection services/tools using common processes and practices for all Ministries and programs regardless of debt type. The streamlined collections system will enhance the efficiency and effectiveness on the collection of
outstanding tax and non-tax debt due to the province of Ontario.
In the 2019-20 Ontario Budget, the Ministry of Colleges and Universities has proposed legislation to allow Ministry of Finance (MOF) to use enhanced collection tools to collect on Ontario Student Loans in default. Without a centralized IT solution, it will be difficult for Ministry of Finance (MOF) to apply the tools efficiently.
Other ministries are also requesting that MOF apply enhanced tools to their accounts in order to increase their
recoveries.
This project will focus on extending OntTax to better support collections using enhanced collection tools,
implement non-crown debt functionality, and further automation of processes making collections more efficient.
In addition, all existing collections accounts, across all government agencies currently being collected on by IFIS will be migrated into OntTax. Additionally MOL (Goldmine) and MOF (Provincial Land tax and Estate Admin Tax) will also be migrated into OntTax.
