The Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure (DPTI)Functional Structure follows on from the previously released draft structure that did not specifically list all existing DPTI functions. This was purposely done as an invitation to staff to input as to how the structure should be built.

The Functional Structure has been developed and revised (10 October 2014) based upon feedback provided to date from across the Department.

We acknowledge that staff are seeking greater clarity regarding the alignment of functions. The Functional Structure outlines the overall responsibilities of the three Divisions and provides further detail about their overall objectives. This further detail willbegin to assist staff to identify where the work they currently undertake alignsin the new structure.

The Functional Structure details draft Directorates that align to a number of functions within each Division. Furtheralignment of these functions may occur to harness greater opportunities. Therefore, the naming and grouping of these Directorates is subject to further feedback and discussion.

An interim organisational structure has also beendevelopedand revised
(10 October 2014)to enable staff to determine their current reporting arrangements within the new Divisions.

The Functional Structurewill be used to inform the newly appointed Chief Officers who will be responsible for implementing the departmental rejuvenation.

People and Business Division

Working collaboratively with the Chief Executive and the Executive team the Chief Corporate Officer will lead the People and Business Division to identify ways to deliver exceptional service provision across the organisation, manage and direct all aspects of workforce development, financial management, strategic planning and ensure regulatory compliance.

The People and Business Division will take responsibility for ensuring that our financial resources are managed well and deliver the best investment outcomes for the state by bringing together all departmental finance, procurement and contract management functions.
