MSIS2013 By Jonathan Challener UPDATE ON THE ACTIVITIES OF THE OECD"S STATISTICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM COLLABORATION COMMUNITY

Who we are? OECD AUSTRALIAN BUREAU OF STATISTICS EUROPEAN COMMISSION INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND ITALIAN NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STATISTICS STATISTICS ESTONIA STATISTICS NEW ZEALAND UNESCO INSTITUTE FOR STATISTICS UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER

Interested? INSEE National Bank of Belgium "Rich in functionalities and easy to use" "Built for ENDUSERS" "Very good process automation options" "Modern user interface and functionality" "Good perspective" "Develop our own tool will take a long time and a lot of resources" "Other similar available tools seem to no longer be improved or have blocking limitations" "To be part of a collaboration community"

Why collaborate?

Co-producing and co-developing state-of-the-art Statistical Information Systems by leveraging on community capacities. Sharing of experiences, knowledge and best practices through multilateral collaboration and building of a collective capacity. Enabling innovation at an optimal cost in a minimal time with all members benefiting from each other in terms of ideas and methods. Provide a platform for Open Data projects as identified as a priority for major member countries. Implementing standards (SDMX) for data sharing across organisations in order to improve data accessibility and quality, and reduce costs.

Why collaborate?

On what?.Stat is the central repository ("warehouse") where validated statistics and related metadata are stored. It provides the sole and coherent source of statistical data and related metadata for an organisation"s statistical data sharing, publication and electronic dissemination processes.
