9 Why is the HLG needed? Before the HLGNow Many expert groupsClear vision Little coordinationAgreed priorities No overall strategyStrategic leadership Limited impactReal progress

10 The Challenges

11 These challenges are too big for statistical organisations to tackle on their own We need to work together

12 Using common standards, statistics can be produced more efficiently No domain is special! Do new methods and tools support this vision, or do they reinforce a stove-pipe mentality?

13 HLG strategy for modernisation  Transform vision to reality  New sources and products  Streamlined processes  Managing organisational change to support modernisation and collaboration

14 HLG strategy for modernisation  Transform vision to reality  New sources and products  Streamlined processes  Managing organisational change to support modernisation and collaboration Conference of European Statisticians, June 2012 Endorsed

15 Managing change  Do we have the right people with the right skills?  Do we have the right organisational structures?  How can we make our organisational culture more accepting of change?

16 But what is the HLG really all about? How can we unite globally to create a new model of collaboration? Lidia Bratanova, UNECE There is more reason to work together now than ever before Gosse van der Veen, formerly CBS, The Netherlands There is a real opportunity, it’s a challenging opportunity, and its not obvious that we will succeed Wayne Smith, Statistics Canada The biggest challenge is a cultural one, not only between our institutions but within our own institutions Brian Pink, formerly Australian Bureau of Statistics

17 What has the HLG achieved? 2012 Generic Statistical Information Model 2013 Common Statistical Production Architecture Frameworks and Standards for Statistical Modernisation 2014 Implementation of the Common Statistical Production Architecture Big Data in Official Statistics

18 HLG roadmap beyond 2014 Implementing common standards and models for the official statistics “industry” Promoting collaboration and sharing From the design stage, not just the outputs Modular systems giving increased flexibility for new sources / processes / outputs
