PROJECT OVERVIEW
New Brunswick is moving from multiple standalone clinical systems to a single provincial Clinical Information Solution (CIS). To support this change, the Application Planning stream is focused on reviewing the current state, identifying gaps, and creating remediation plans that ensure all ‘downstream’ and ancillary applications are at a readiness state for the provincial CIS.
This work includes leading a team of Technical Professionals to assess existing applications and middleware outside of the core CIS solutions to determine functionality and present recommendations to Program Governance on a roadmap for each application that may include replacement/retirement, application rationalization and consolidation, as well as change plans to ensure critical solutions are at a readiness state and compatible with the new CIS. Some work may be completed directly within the project, while other elements will require collaboration with various operational groups and business stakeholders across the New Brunswick Health sector.
DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
Service New Brunswick (SNB) requires an Application Planning Lead responsible for driving the assessment, rationalization, and readiness of the provincial healthcare application landscape to ensure a successful deployment of the Clinical Information System (CIS) across New Brunswick.

- Document application architectures, workflows, and integrations to support downstream planning and decision-making.
- Ensure accurate categorization and validation of application inventory aligned with governance expectations and clinical domains
2. Functional & Technical Gap Analysis
- Assess existing applications against CIS capabilities to identify functional, technical, and workflow gaps.
- Evaluate impacts of CIS implementation on downstream systems, including duplication of functionality and alignment with clinical processes.
- Lead high-level assessments (HLAs) and decision-support analysis to inform application disposition and investment strategies.
3. Application Disposition & Roadmap Development
- Define and maintain application disposition strategies (retain, replace, integrate, consolidate, or decommission) aligned with CIS Program direction.
- Develop application roadmaps, including sequencing, dependencies, and alignment with CIS go-live.
- Support governance processes to ensure disposition decisions are evidence-based and formally approved.
4. Application Readiness Planning
- Define and execute application readiness strategies for CIS-impacted systems, including:
o Upgrades and version alignment
o Technical debt remediation
o Integration/interface changes
o Configuration and refactoring approaches
5. Clinical Alignment & Workflow Integration
- Work closely with clinical stakeholders to ensure application decisions support standardized clinical workflows and patient care delivery.
- Translate clinical requirements into feasible application and technical solution approaches.
- Ensure alignment between application capabilities, CIS functionality, and organizational policies.
6. Stakeholder Engagement & Facilitation
- Facilitate collaboration across clinical, operational, technical, and vendor stakeholders to align priorities and resolve issues.
- Act as a key liaison between CIS delivery teams, application owners, and operational support teams across RHAs and SNB.
- Lead workshops, working sessions, and governance forums related to application planning and decision-making.
7. Governance, Decision Management & Risk Oversight
- Support governance processes by preparing decision records (DRs), recommendations, and supporting analysis.
- Identify and manage risks and issues related to application readiness, integration, and deployment timelines.
- Ensure application decisions align with CIS priorities, enterprise standards, and risk-based prioritization principles.
8. Delivery Planning, Reporting & Execution Oversight
- Develop and maintain detailed application plans, including resource requirements, timelines, and deliverables.
- Provide regular status updates, dashboards, and reporting to program leadership and governance bodies.
- Support execution of application-related work across project and operational teams, ensuring milestones and critical timelines are met
