38. 行预咨委会并获悉，为确保“团结”项目 2015 年 11 月在拥有一些行政机构的总部顺利部署，同时继续为现有方案提供必要服务，秘书处认识到部署“团结”项目最有效和务实的方法是成立“总部部署小组”，即调动各部门执行办公室履行交易职能的工作人员以及管理事务部的业务人员(人力资源、应付账户等)集中办公。部署小组将与项目小组和流程主管密切协商，协调和管理“团结”项目的所有工作量和工作流程，确保项目的运作模式成功筹备和部署。虽然上述人员集中办公，但员额/职位并没有在部厅之间或向管理事务部正式调任或改派。委员会将在审议 2016-2017 两年期拟议方案预算时继续处理这一问题。
38. The Advisory Committee was further informed that in order to ensure the smooth deployment of Umoja at Headquarters in November 2015, where a number of administrative structures exist, while continuing to provide essential services to ongoing programmes, it had become apparent to the Secretariat that the most efficient and pragmatic way of preparing the deployment of Umoja was to constitute a “Headquarters deployment group” by collocating the staff required to perform transactional functions in departmental executive offices along with the operational elements of the Department of Management (for example, human resources services and accounts payable). The deployment group will coordinate and manage all Umoja workflows and processes, in close consultation with the Umoja team and process owners, in order to ensure the successful preparation and deployment of the Umoja operating model. The collocation of staff did not result in the formal transfer or reassignment of posts/positions among departments/offices or from offices/ departments to the Department of Management. The Committee will address this issue further in the context of its consideration of the proposed programme budget for the biennium 2016-2017.
