Cooperation in quotes Competition has been shown to be useful up to a certain point and no further, but cooperation, which is the thing we must strive for today, begins where competition leaves off. (Franklin D. Roosevelt) The keystone of successful business is cooperation. Friction retards progress. (James Cash Penney, American business man) slide 2 | www.statistik.at
Overview Cooperation Partners of NSIs ESS cooperation Models Purposes of Cooperation Cooperation examples Conclusions slide 3 | www.statistik.at
Innovation Cooperation Partners Academia NSI Research Institutes ESTAT NSI NSI User Groups ESS NSI NSI ONAs NSI NSI Private Data Producers NSI NSI Data Owners Other International Fora Others slide 4 | www.statistik.at
ESS Cooperation Models informal formal Centres of Excellence Informal/ bilateral EU- ESSnets Regulation all countries Prepared/decided in formal ESS structure EU financing possible Objective: comparability through harmonization and standardization No formal structure No EU financing Subset of countries EU financing Coordination by NSI Task driven Limited in time Subset of countries EU/MS financing Public procurement NSI(s) competence leader(s) Implementation focus Not limited in time slide 5 | www.statistik.at

SIMSTAT: High Formality Requirement High Interdependence: NSIs ability to produce FT-statistics depends on: Coverage Quality Timeliness Data Protection! High formality requirement: EU regulation Common Production Purpose: Microdata Exchange ESTAT NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI slide 8 | www.statistik.at
CoE: Medium Formality Requirement CoE produces/develops for the ESS as a whole ESS interest MS involvement System compatibility Efficiency gain Cost compensation through standardized cost accounting Medium formality requirement: public procurement; contracts Common Production/ Development Purpose ESTAT NSI NSI CoE NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI slide 9 | www.statistik.at
ESSnet: Low/Med. Formality Requirement ESSnet develops solutions for the ESS Development of standards/models/ systems Filtered back to ESS structure Decision by ESSC EU grant to cover coordination costs Medium formality requirement: contracts Improvement action: filtering back to the ESS Common Development Purpose ESTAT NSI NSI ESSnet NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI slide 10 | www.statistik.at
Informal/bilat.: No Formality Requirement Informal/bilateral cooperation 2 or more NSIs Learning from each other No common development/ production purpose No financing Regular/irregular meetings Changing composition/level Exchange of Practices Purpose ESTAT NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI NSI slide 11 | www.statistik.at
Conclusions Innovation and Progress can be achieved much better by cooperating Broad range of cooperation partners within and outside the ESS ESS cooperation not only innovation driver But also a way to deal with resource constraints Choice of cooperation model depends on cooperation purpose What we need: Trust Good frameworks for different cooperation models Promote informal fora to exchange experience slide 12 | www.statistik.at
