what we do
Focused on product excellence and delivering concrete solutions to common problems.
.STAT SUITE, A PLATFORM...
- ...To manage the (macro)data lifecycle for official statistics (design, collect, process, disseminate).
- ...To explore data and develop various reporting and dissemination experiences.
- ...‘SDMX-native’, building on best practices in statistical data modeling, and open source.
How we learn
.Stat Academy supports capacity building in the .Stat Suite and data modelling in SDMX for data toolers and data producers.
What our Community is saying
Real feedback, real people, real perspectives from our Community
The Community products are used by the members to manage and share their own data, while also being made available to any public entity seeking to maximise the value of their data to inform and guide public policy.
The community approach is an excellent way to develop software products like .Stat Suite, but also to create synergies among the different organisations in terms of data sharing, data modelling and improving data collection.
SIS-CC actively uses their open data tools and standards to strengthen development data work within and outside the community with a rich and successful history of collaborative capacity building in low-to-middle income countries.
SIS-CC facilitates the implementation of collaborative solutions to support an organisation in modernising its statistical system to develop a corporate statistical dissemination platform and implement international standards.
We need, as the community of official statistical organisations, to continue to join forces to co-innovate and co-invest in the next generation of practices and solutions to meet common challenges. Most of us will not be able to cope with these challenges alone.
We are committed to improving data availability, access and sharing. We handle a high number of requests from users, which is why we decided to, with support from the OECD and PARIS21, systematically analyse our current practices and the way we manage people, processes and products.
With the support of UNICEF, the OECD, and PARIS21, under the SIS-CC, we were able to analyse the 'as is' situation of our current data flow and practices across the organisation, to define a way forward, aligned to international best practices and standards.
We chose .Stat Suite for three reasons. First, it is built with the SDMX standard at the core, thus enabling open exchange of data and metadata with our partners. Second, it is backed by a global community of users and developers, ensuring the long term continuity of the platform. And third, it is open source.
