  • - Integration of Economic Statistics
  • Integration of Household Statistics
  • 1995
  • Analysis Unit Established

use of Adm Data
2011 Future Organisation Structure
1968-69 Economic Census

  • Individual collection methods and systems for
  • Progressive convergence of tools and methods
  • Household surveys
  • Business surveys
  • Population Census
  • Others
  • cottage industries
  • CAPI / CATI
  • Paper and scanning
  • Establishment of ESDC (100-400 office based
    interviewers)
  • Single field interviewer workforce (300-900 field
    based interviewers)
  • Administrative Data Acquisition Unit
  • Integrated Collection and Dissemination Division

5
ABS experience
  • Existing purpose built capability
  • Specialised
  • Inflexible and vulnerable
  • High cost to maintain and change
  • Slow to change
  • Cycle of leap and legacy

6
The Challenges
Riding the big data wave
New competitors changing expectations
Increasing cost difficulty of acquiring data
Competition for skilled resources - low
unemployment
Reducing budget
Rapid changes in the environment
7
Where are we headed?
  • Over the next 5 years we will transform the way
    the ABS manages information from collection to
    dissemination
  • Providing a better evidence base for use by
    Governments and the community

8
ABS 2017 Program Goals
  • Reduce the cost and time of doing business
  • Grow the business through new statistical
    products and services
  • Deliver the first large scale digital Census
    (2016) on time, to budget and quality
  • while delivering Business As Usual.

9
How will we get there?
  • Through large scale Innovation across the whole
    ABS
  • We will
  • radically transform the way we acquire, collate,
    use, reuse and disseminate statistical
    information
  • By
  • industrialising, modernising and reengineering
    our business processes
  • reengineering our statistical infrastructure and
    the way we manage information
  • developing capability needed to meet future needs
  • collaborating with other international NSIs
  • focussing on a limited number of centralised
    projects, including the digital Census for 2016

10
1. Business Process Reengineering
  • Change the way we acquire and process data
    emphasis on e-collect for Census 2016, business
    and household surveys, including web and hand
    held devices
  • Increase our access to and use of large
    administrative datasets
  • Integrate and join data from a range of sources

11
2. Reengineering Statistical Infrastructure
  • New Core Information Management Infrastructure
    tools
  • metadata driven systems based on agreed standards
  • One ABS data warehouse to store, manage data from
    all sources
  • On-line data that can be queried
  • Management of statistical workflows
  • International collaboration to build next
    generation statistical tools

Risks and issues
  • New stovepipes with standard tools
  • Future organisational structure Operations
    Division
  • Dont want to build if we dont need to
  • Standards versus flexibility
  • Cultural change and resistance
  • Achieving the savings
  • One size may not fit all
  • Trade offs will need to occur in some business
    areas
  • We cant resolve all problems
