Program Negotiations – Global Uplifts

The second project within the PN portfolio is Global Uplifts (PN-GU), and is scheduled to be rolled out in the near future.

This initiative has the purpose of replacing the Excel-based Automation Tool with an integrated process for automatically applying systemic rate updates, such as those administered under the Sustainable Services Negotiating Mandate (SSNM). This will streamline the annual uplift process with the ultimate goal of flowing funding through to service providers in a more timely manner.
