  1. Implementing a Statistical Data Warehouse: The Case for a Strong Partnership OECD: Lars Thygesen, Douglas Paterson IMF: Cathy Wright, Patrick Hinderdael Meeting on the Management of Statistical Information Systems (MSIS), Geneva, May 8-10, 2007

  2. OECD Data Warehouse • OECD.Stat established 2004 • Access to OLIS (government) 2005 • Access via Internet 2006 • New dissemination policy 2007-08 • Already shared components with other organisations

  3. The Business Perspective • Same business: production and dissemination of economic data • Much of our data overlap • Both organizations support data sharing via SDMX • Similar organisational structures • Why not combine forces to jointly develop a data warehouse ?

  4. The Business Perspective Improved provider relations Improved data quality Betterservice to data users Improved data and metadata management More cost-effective data work Better structured career opportunity Improved management of data processes Better documentation, storage, access control, archiving of datasets Enhanced analytical capacity—”all about” analysis

  5. The Technology Perspective • Similar development/integration platform and almost identical runtime environments (MS Windows server and clients, MS SQL Server, MS .NET Framework, MS Office suite) • Collaboration tools (MS Sharepoint and Team Foundation Server) • Align code base, functional requirements, development resources, deployment schedules

  6. Production Storage Dissemination OECD.Stat Data Production (incl. StatWorks) Corporate Data Warehouse Online access Web Browser Books CDs etc. MetaStore XML XML Statistical Metadata OECD Statistical Information System (SIS) Architecture

  9. Memorandum of Understanding • Responsibilities and rights • Sharing of further developments • Pooling of technical resources • Similar to Open Source • Open to other partners

  10. Governance Management Mandate INFORMATION MANAGEMENT Work Practices Technology & Training Delivering the Data Warehouse Technology – Just one piece of the puzzle Work Practices

  11. The Outcome to Date • In-depth OECD and IMF collaboration since Dec 2006 – OECD staff at IMF in February • Adoption of IMF.Stat: World and Regional Economic Outlooks, International Financial Statistics databases will go live May 2007 • MOU to be signed shortly • Weekly conference calls • Initiating discussion of plans for joint development of enhancements
