Potential replacements for Phoenix pay system to undergo testing soon: Brison
OTTAWA — Testing of prototypes to replace the federal government’s troubled pay system will begin within weeks, but there is no firm deadline for when a new system will be fully launched, the minister in charge of finding a substitute for Phoenix said Wednesday.
Treasury Board President Scott Brison said he’s hoping to have a better idea by early 2019 about which new pay system the government will use.
“There will be working prototyes being tested by public servants in the coming weeks and months,” Brison said.
“We will have working prototypes . . . tested in this calendar year.”
