The "works" functions from the former Department of Housing and Works were transferred into the Department of Treasury and Finance (DTF) in February 2009.
For the 2009-10 Budget, a revised service structure that incorporated three additional "works" services was introduced.
The revised Outcome Based Management (OBM) structure increased the number of services from 12 in 2008-09 to 15 in 2009-10.
The Office of the Auditor General (OAG) and other members of the Outcome Structure Review Group (OSRG) expressed concern with the number of key performance indicators (KPIs) in the 2009-10 OBM structure.
In this regard, the OSRG endorsed the 2009-10 structure as an interim arrangement, and requested that DTF undertake a further review in 2010-11 with the view to integrating and rationalising the number of services and KPIs.
Consistent with this direction, the DTF OBM structure was reviewed, and the 2009-10 services and KPIs were rationalised on the basis of better service alignment and materiality between services and functions.
As a result, the former service 12
"Facilitate the Centre for Excellence and Innovation in Infrastructure Delivery (CEIID)"
was removed from the 2010-11 OBM structure and incorporated in the new service 11
"Leads the Planning and Delivery of New Government Buildings"
(service 13 in 2009-10). Both these services encompass strategic leadership and facilitation in the planning, project management and procurement of new non-residential buildings, and the delivery of value-for-money outcomes.  The change does not diminish DTF's focus on the CEIID initiative - rather it aligns it more closely with the "works" services.
