DQAF Background • Data Quality Assessment Framework (DQAF): • Developed by the IMF • Methodology for assessing data quality that brings together best practices and internationally accepted concepts and definitions in statistics • Structure for assessing data quality by comparing country statistical practices with best practices
DQAF Structure • Six-part structure: • Prerequisites of quality: review of the legal and institutional environment • Integrity • Methodological soundness • Accuracy and reliability • Serviceability • Accessibility Five dimensions of quality
DQAF Structure • Cascading structure: 1. Dimension of quality 1.1 Element 1 1.1.1 Indicator 1 1.1.2 Indicator 2 1.1.3 Indicator 3 1.2 Element 2
DQAF-ICP Objective • A framework for assessing the quality of ICP rounds. • This framework will constitute a structured tool to evaluate the quality of: ICP processes in countries, regional offices, and Global Office ICP data, including input data (prices and expenditures) and output data (PPPs)
DQAF-ICP Challenge • The DQAF was developed with specific data sets, typically compiled by a single institution in each economy, in mind. • In adapting the DQAF framework to the ICP, consideration was given to the complex data collection and statistical compilation arrangements that apply to the ICP.
DQAF-ICP Structure • The DQAF-ICP is divided into three parts: • Each part follows the DQAF cascading structure and covers it six dimensions. Part A covers the activities of the Global Office Part B covers the activities of the Regional Coordinators Part C covers the activities of the National Coordinators
DQAF-ICP Checklist • A set of questionnaires to help collect the information required to evaluate the ICP based on the DQAF-ICP framework. • Three questionnaires designed for Countries, Regional Coordinators, and the Global Office.
DQAF-ICP Checklist Status and Next Steps • DQAF-ICP Country Checklist in draft format • Regional Coordinators’ comments and input required before finalizing it • Country Checklist requires translation into various languages • Two more questionnaires underway: • DQAF-ICP Regional Coordinators Checklist • DQAF-ICP Global Office Checklist
