1. ESS.VIP.SERV Shared Services
TF Meeting 14/15 April 2016
Item C1 – Governance / GSBPM mapping
Eurostat

2. Shared Services Governance
Needs to cover many aspects (guidelines, templates, service selection, legal, catalogue workflow…)
WP1 (guidelines),2 (CoE) and 4 (identification of services) of the ESSnet will deliver a large part of the governance. WP5 will also provide elements relating to open source.
ESS bodies provided input to integrate in existing work
While the work is split, it will have to be available as a homogenous package

3. Governance input from ESS
Include legal aspects (ownership, responsibilities, support, funding…)
Include lifecycle for the development/catalogue
Include the formal selection process
Include the certification process
Aim at covering level 1 GSBPM
Use an economic model to select services
Rules for use and reuse of OSS
Guidelines on how sharing will work

4. Articulation with CSPA
CSPA aims at certifying compliant services
SERV will provide certification as ESS level
SERV implements CSPA
 Define a relationship between ESS SERV certification and UNECE CSPA certification to prevent duplication of work (Item C5)

5. GSBPM mapping
GSBPM coupled with SOA would require organisational changes
Organisational changes are out of scope for SERV
ESS cannot impose organisation to NSIs
Advice or recommendations regarding organisational impact of GSBPM + SERV adoption could be integrated into the SERV "Shared Services governance"
SERV perspective : map services of the catalogue to GSBPM level 1
