Business Analyst - Senior - RQ00204

Toronto, ON
Description

Background Information:
Ontario Health requires an upgrade to its bilingual Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) system – the QIP Navigator - in order to meet the business needs of Ontario Health and the needs of over 1000+ health care organizations (currently hospital, interprofessional primary care, and long-term care organizations). These organizations currently use the system to develop and submit their annual QIPs, as part of legislation and Service Accountability requirements. The current Navigator platform was built in 2013 (by legacy Health Quality Ontario) and is built on aging technology. The business and digital teams completed an RFI in June 2024, which determined that there was no existing system/platform on the market that met the needs of the end users. As we continue to enhance the system on dated technology, it was determined the best route forward was to complete a prototype to see if this product could be re-built or enhanced with our current development team that supports the QIP platform. A Senior Business Analyst is required to create a Business Requirements Documents (BRD) that can be used for the future QIP system.
