The major organisational and functional components of the project are:
- Contributing Bio-repositories
- Human Cancer Bio-specimen Core Resource
- Cancer Genome Characterization Centres
- Genome Sequencing Centres
- Data Management, Bioinformatics and Computational Analysis
- Technology Development
