About the Ministry – Revenue Solutions Portfolio

Revenue Solutions provides revenue management services to the ministry and across government. These services include account management, billing, payment and remittance processing, and debt collection.

Services are provided through a combination of Ministry staff and a private-sector service provider. In 2004, the Province of British Columbia signed a 10-year Agreement with EDS Advanced Solutions Inc. to work with the Ministry of Small Business and Revenue to build and operate a Centre of Excellence for Revenue Management. Revenue management services are provided under the terms of the Agreement, and on behalf of the Province, under the Province's official brand and mark, Revenue Services of British Columbia (RSBC). For more information on RSBC, please see the RSBC Annual Report.

The Revenue Solutions Portfolio includes:

• Tax and non-tax debt recovery/collections
• Contract management of the private-sector service provider
• Business development, working with client ministries to transition their revenue management functions to the Ministry of Small Business and Revenue

This business area also manages and collects revenues for the Ministry of Forests and Range. This includes collection of revenue from invoices issued to forest industry clients and managing trust security deposits on tenure agreements.
