The document discusses the objectives and progress of the Generalized Process for Business Statistics (GPBS) project. GPBS aims to standardize methods, metadata, and IT tools across business survey production. It has designed a generalized architecture based on international statistical standards. This includes a metadata repository compliant with GSIM, standardizing survey data and metadata from legacy systems, and a statistical service proof-of-concept for selective editing. The project seeks to integrate existing ad-hoc applications into a standardized environment to improve business survey processes.

- 4. GPBS within the Advisory Board GPBS proposed to the Advisory Board in november 2017 Main recommendations: data driven workflow generalized functionalities to integrate ad-hoc legacy applications in a standard environment analysis of generalized tools developed by other NSIs (e.g. BANFF from Stat. Canada) 4 What have we done? (1/2) Generalized Process for Business Statistics – Advisory Board, 19/11/2018
- 5. Selected a subset of Short-Term business Statistics (STS) and Structural Business Statistics (SBS) Analysed International Standards in the context of Official Statistics: EARF: Enterprise Architecture Reference Framework CSPA: standard for sharing statistical services GSDEM: standard for editing & imputation GSIM: information objects in statistical processes Started the design and implementation of the TO-BE architecture 5 What have we done?
