Question 1

You mention in your paper that NSI’s no longer control production of statistics and instead they rely on several sources over the internet. What are the challenges faced by your organization in reconciling these data into a meaningful data set. If these data were available in SDMX format would it make your task easier and how?

Question 2

In your conclusion you have mentioned SDMX standards are driven by the seven sponsor organizations. The sponsors have now formed two global working groups to work on the SDMX technical and content standards with involvement from NSI and Central Bank’s. In addition to this, what else should the sponsors do to involve the NSI’s and Central Banks?

General Discussion

The management challenges of SDMX implementation

– Don’t know what SDMX is, or the benefits– No senior management buy in– No resources (funding)– Not enough personnel with SDMX knowledge– Not enough training or learning material– Not sure on what tools to use– Using a different standard for data collection & dissemination
