In 1992-1993, a group of senior officials in Canadian federal departments created a collaborative forum called the Council on Administration. Their intent was to increase efficiency, improve service delivery, and cut costs by means of a series of initiatives called "Locally Shared Support Services"(LSSS). Because the member departments and agencies co-tenanted a large government office complex(Les Terrasses de la Chaudière(TLC) 1, located in Hull, within the National Capital Region) the founders of the Council saw potential for achieving these goals through the power of collective action... Since this innovative change process was launched in 1992, LSSS initiatives have led to the elimination of duplication; improved productivity and savings; sharing of innovative ideas, expertise and best practices; and development of models for use by other departments and agencies in the NRC and other regions... 3, record 1, English, - Locally%20Shared%20Support%20Services

En 1992-1993, des cadres supérieurs de six ministères et agences fédéraux canadiens ont formé un groupe de collaborateurs appelé Conseil d'administration. Ils voulaient travailler à accroître la productivité, à améliorer la prestation des services et à réduire les coûts par une série d'initiatives dites « services d'appui partagés localement » (SAPL). Comme leurs ministères et leurs organismes respectifs partageaient la location d'un vaste ensemble de bureaux gouvernementaux [Les Terrasses de la Chaudière1 (TLC), situées à Hull, au sein de la région de la capitale nationale (RCN)], ils ont vu la possibilité d'atteindre ces objectifs par la force de l'action collective ... 3, record 1, French, - Services%20d%27appui%20partag%C3%A9s%20localement

Terrasses de la Chaudière is a complex of government office buildings in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada. The complex was built in 1978 as part of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's initiative to see more federal workers based in the Quebec side of the Ottawa River. It was built by developer Robert Campeau and then leased to the government. The complex was named after the nearby Chaudière Falls in the Ottawa River. Today its three towers hold some 6, 500 federal government office workers and houses Department of the Environment, the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs, the Department of Canadian Heritage, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission(CRTC), and several other government entities. The centre also holds a shopping complex, a hotel, and a convention centre. The Central tower of the complex is the tallest in the National Capital Region, at 30 storeys and 124 meters high. 1, record 2, English, - Terrasses%20de%20la%20Chaudi%C3%A8re
