Goals and expected outcomes
for ESS Validation Medium-term goals Business Outcomes Goal 1: Ensure the transparency of the validation procedures applied to the data sent to Eurostat by the ESS Member States. Increase in the quality and credibility of European statistics Reduction of costs related to the time-consuming validation cycle in the ESS ("validation Ping-Pong") Goal 2: Enable sharing and re-use of validation services across the ESS on a voluntary basis. Reduction of costs related to IT development and maintenance

State of Play – Main achievements
2016 – May 2017 Business architecture for ESS Validation finalised and approved VTL: Assessment of VTL for content validation rules in 5 domains Proof of concept of a VTL interpreter (VTL sandbox) Contribution to improvement of VTL (via public consultation) Tools and services: STRUVAL available at Eurostat in Process Manager and exposed for sharing service CONVAL-1 available at Eurostat in Process Manager Communication (Video, Training courses, Web pages, …)
11
Next steps for Standard framework (template, guidelines, best practices, …) for describing and agreeing on validation rules and roles covering all statistical domains Deployment of Business Architecture in ESS Validation services available: (STRUVAL), CONVAL-2 (with VTL support), Validation Rules Manager Validation rule registry available
12
Standard framework for validation rules and roles
practise of designing and agreeing on validation rules at Working Group level will be extended to all statistical domains until end 2019 validation rules will be documented using common cross- domain standards clear validation responsibilities will be assigned to the different actors
