Before a service or website goes live, the project's eServices service delivery manger will work with the department to complete this pre-launch checklist. This is our final check to ensure all of the government's requirements are met.
Go to the eServices pre-launch checklist document download page.
These are some of the questions the service delivery manager will ask the project team.
-
Is the Security Threat and Risk Assessment (STRA) complete? Complete means the STRA is complete and you've developed and implemented a remediation plan to address any issues the STRA uncovered.
-
Is the Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) complete and filed with Office of the Yukon Information and Privacy Commissioner (OIPC)? You should never launch a public digital service without a completed PIA. This means the government's ATIPP Office has reviewed and provided feedback you've implemented their recommendations. Next you'll file the PIA with the OIPC and answer their questions and implement their feedback.
If your service delivery manager has any questions about the completeness of your PIA they will complete an Audit Acceptance Document that you'll need to getsigned by the appropriate authority? This is usually a director or deputy minister. -
