Developing a framework for standardisation High-Level Seminar on Streamlining Statistical production Zlatibor, Serbia 6-7 July 2011 Rune GløersenIT DirectorStatistics Norway
Contents • Preconditions for improved standardisation • The characteristics of processes and data at NSIs • Applicable standards for various business processes • Governance • Some international trends
Reasons for standardising statistical production • Leaving stovepipes • Shift of focus from surveys and products to processes • Introduction of quality frameworks • Coherence and comparability, quality assessments • Quality assurance and audits, risk reduction • Improving efficiency • Internal interoperability, streamlining work processes, cost effectiveness • Globalisation • International interoperability, comparability, benchmarking • Content standardisation • Data and metadata standards • Best practise methods • Technological standardisation • High-level architecture, standardise and reuse tools
Cornerstones of standardisation and improved interoperability Organisational interoperability Semantical interoperability Technological interoperability

IT-solutions must be built upon standardmethods, a standardinfrastructure and be in accordance with Statistics Norway’s business architecture IT-business alignment Open standards Our IT-solutions must be platform independent and component based, shared components must be used wherever possible It must be possible to create new IT-solutions by integrating existing and new functionality Our services must have clearly defined, technology-independent interfaces Distinguish between user interface, business logic and data management (layered approach) End-user systems must have uniform user interfaces Store once, reuse may times(avoid double storage) Data and metadata must be uniquely identifiable across systems 10 IT architecture principles
