Strategic planning framework
![Page 4: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Strategic planning is a key principle in mobilizing political and financial support for investment in statistics to connect national development objectives with a programme of work for statistical capacity-building.
For this purpose a strategic planning framework need to be developed
Strategic planning
![Page 5: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Best practices are available on how to develop SPFs for the development of statistics:
National Strategies for the Development of Statistics (NSDSs) is the most widely used tool for statistical planning in developing countries
ISWGNA favours the use of NSDS strategic planning framework
Strategic Planning Framework
![Page 6: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
National Strategies for the Development of Statistics
A NSDS is a guide for developing a statistical system◦ Coordination and sequencing◦ Consistency with national priorities and the needs of
data users A sequenced set of actions to be carried out
over a period of 4 to 5 years
![Page 7: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Characteristics
1. Integrated into national development and poverty reduction policies;
2. Takes into account national, regional, and international data needs;
3. Encompasses production, dissemination, analysis, and use of data and related issues;
4. Covers all the main statistical production units, and serves as a framework for sectors;
5. Serves as coordinating framework for international and bilateral assistance;
6. Integrates existing activities, and draws on the past experience
![Page 8: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Reasons for a strategic approach
Resources are limited, and priorities have to be made
Piecemeal approach is not cost effective To ensure that all areas are covered To promote alignment with national policy
priorities and plans
![Page 9: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The NSDS phases
Five phases
◦ Launching the process (road map)
◦ Assessment
◦ Developing the vision
◦ An implementation plan
◦ Managing implementation and monitoring progress
![Page 10: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The timetable
The timetable depends on a number of factors:
◦Political validation◦What is already in place◦Need for sufficient time for effective
consultation and review
Important to link preparation with national processes and budget timetables
![Page 11: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The actors
◦ Who decides? The national authorities.◦ ◦ Who leads the work? A central team assisted by other
teams.
◦ Who advises? Specialists and users.
◦ Who provides technical and financial support? International and regional co-operation
![Page 12: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Content of the strategic framework
Assessment and appraisal of existing outputs
Strategic vision Includes institutional development,
framework Implementation plan
◦ Cost, realistic, prioritized, timetable, flexible
![Page 13: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The NSDS is a comprehensive approach
Statistical system◦ Frameworks (regulatory, codes of practice)◦ Statistical infrastructure◦ Methods◦ Coordination & prioritization mechanisms◦ Products (“national statistics”)
Statistical agencies◦ Business or corporate plans◦ Short-term work plans
![Page 14: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
NSDSs and the SNA
Data development requirements for national accounts should be an integral part of the NSDS
NSDS sometimes lack of emphasis on economic statistics
Priorities not reflecting the needs of data users
Fully developed - include sequencing, costing, and human resource implications
NSDS not the result, but the means to achieve goals
![Page 15: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Knowledge Base on Economic Statistics and Macroeconomic Standards
![Page 16: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Diagnostic framework for national accounts and
supporting statistics
![Page 28: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Tool to assess the adequacy of the national statistical production process to support implementation of the 2008 SNA.
Self assessment of statistical prerequisites outlined in stages I and II of the 2008 SNA implementation programme.
Develop a vision for improving the availability and quality of the economic statistics required for compilation of national accounts.
Purpose
![Page 29: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Discuss vision preferably in a national seminar with all stakeholders, such as:
◦ policy planners;
◦ users including the academia; and
◦ business community.
Purpose
![Page 30: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Such a discussion is expected to help the NSO to: ◦ prioritize actions to mitigate the problem areas ◦ write a plan for the improvement of the supporting
statistics for the compilation of the national accounts
◦ develops an information structure for planning, monitoring and evaluating the implementation of the SNA; and
◦ builds on the joint efforts of the ISWGNA to establish an information structure for managing technical assistance operations
Purpose
![Page 31: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The tool is based on the widely used CES Classification of Statistical Activities
The Classification provides a structured presentation of statistical activities aimed at ◦ collecting, producing and disseminating data, ◦ developing standards, ◦ harmonization and implementation of statistics. ◦ Statistical activities are organized in five
statistical domains.
Approach
![Page 32: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Domains 1-3 deals with the outputs of the statistical process. ◦ 1 Demographic and social statistics; ◦ 2 Economic statistics; and ◦ 3 Environment and multi-domain statistics
Domains 4 and 5 cover substantive issues such as process, organization and also managerial aspects of official statistics.
Approach
![Page 33: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
4 Methodology of data collection, processing, dissemination and analysis
Deals with activities that lead to statistical outputs covering: ◦ data collection, processing and dissemination
methodology, and ◦ activities for producing official statistics such as
censuses, surveys, administrative registers.
Approach
![Page 34: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
5 Strategic and managerial issues of official statistics covers areas that are of managerial concern, dealing with the institutional and organizational side of national and international statistical agencies, which includes ◦ the management, coordination of the statistical
system, including relationship with users, organization of the statistical office,
◦ promotion of official statistics, ◦ setting up national statistical programmes, ◦ human resources management and training and ◦ ICT management.
Approach
![Page 35: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Cross classify the statistical activities of domain 2 and selected activities from domain 1 and 3 with domain 4 and 5
This allows the assessment of economic activities in terms of ◦ process, ◦ organization and ◦ managerial aspects of official statistics
Diagnostic tool

To facilitate sharing of information UNSD is in the process of developing a website with information supporting the implementation of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics.
SNA implementation website
![Page 39: Review phase of the implementation programme of the 2008 SNA and supporting statistics Seminar on the implementation of the System of National Accounts.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649f535503460f94c773b2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Themes that could be addressed in this website are:◦ Knowledge base on statistical standards and
guidance material (already operational)◦ Knowledge base on training material (still under
discussion)◦ Progress with the implementation process, which
could include Statistical system information Results of the diagnostic tool The vision documents Progress reports
