Wikipedia description:

Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC; French: Services publics et Approvisionnement Canada) is the department of the Government of Canada with responsibility for the government's internal servicing and administration. The department is responsible for the procurement for other government departments and serves as the central purchasing agent, real property manager, treasurer, accountant, pay and pension administrator, integrity adviser and linguistic authority. It is also the custodian of a large real estate portfolio and as well infrastructure such as bridges, dams and highways. The department is responsible to Parliament through the minister of public services and procurement and receiver general for Canada – presently Joël Lightbound. Day-to-day operations and leadership of the department is overseen by the deputy minister, a senior civil servant. It was recognized in 2018 as one of Canada's Best Diversity Employers.
