Introduction Saskatchewan experienced unprecedented population growth in 2022-23. To support this growth, it is more important than ever for the public sector to work together, through Collaboration, to advance the province’s economy, enhance customer experience and achieve operating efficiencies and cost savings. The Collaboration initiative brings together people from across government organizations and the Crown sector to focus on strategic initiatives that support Saskatchewan’s Growth Plan.
Highlights for Collaboration for 2022-23 include:
• attracting more than $1.88 billion in private-sector investments from 29 projects including mining and energy, agri-value added, manufacturing and forestry industries; • implementation of eight customer-service initiatives which enhanced customer experience when using government services, saving people and businesses time and money; and • achieving $53.1 million in cost savings through efficiencies in operations and by leveraging collective purchasing power on procurements in the public sector. Collaboration’s 13 strategic initiative teams worked diligently to advance priorities of the Government’s Growth Plan goals in 2022-23, bringing value to better serve Saskatchewan residents, communities and business partners. These teams’ diverse initiatives in areas like infrastructure, procurement, property management, mental health and investment attraction positively impacted key economic drivers in the province, providing solid ground for development and growth into the future. These achievements are the result of the dedication and expertise of Collaboration team members. In 2022-23, the Collaboration initiative has grown to include participants from 32 government entities including the CIC Crowns, Ministries, Treasury Board Crowns and Government Agencies. The time and energy that participating partners invested into this important government-wide initiative has achieved remarkable results. By continuing to work together, Collaboration is helping to build a stronger Saskatchewan.
