Constraints

TBDAs the Vessel Registry service is heavily rooted in regulations and compliance, the vast majority of the service (i.e. information we collect) is designed to comply with the Canada Shipping Act, 2001, as well as the associated consolidated regulations. It is not within the scope of our project to effect any change in regulations or policy, so we will need to ensure that service or system design we do is in compliance with the regulations. Rather than attempt to document any and all regulatory element in advance, at the advice of the Chief Registrar, we will include compliance checks (completed by SMEs) as part of the testing process as we build and implement components of the solution.

The scope of the project is focused on the “Service Request” relationship. That is, the process of receiving a request for service from a client (e.g. a First-time Registration application) to the point of issuance of the certificate of registry. While the program would be happy to be provided with any recommendations for improvements elsewhere in the service, we received guidance that for scoping and focus purposes, our attention should be on the service request process.
