Strategic Communication Framework phase 2

Progress

UNECE hosted a three day sprint session April 30th - May 2nd to launch phase 2 of the project. 8 participants from 7 countries made good progress on Work packages 1 and 2 of the project plan. The documents produced at the sprint have been posted on the wiki and shared with all project members. Work package 3 was discussed but no real progress was made as all the appropriate project members were not in attendance.

Next Steps

The project team conducted its regular monthly webex meeting on Tuesday, May 21st. Workplans were discussed and members agreed on their contributions.

A two day face-to-face meeting is scheduled for Gdansk, Poland on June 10 and 11. The location and dates were chosen to maximize participation with those already attending the Workshop on Dissemination and Communication in Gdansk June 12-14. 7 members from 7 countries have confirmed their participation with two additional countries indicating interest but have not yet registered.

The Project members thank Statistics Poland for agreeing to host the face-to-face project meeting. The objectives of this meeting will be to make progress on Work packages 1 & 2 and begin work on Work Package 3.

Risks and Issues

Successful delivery of the ambitious work plans require full participation from all members. I will be in a better position following the Gdansk session to know if we have the right skill sets within the project to deliver on Work Package 3.

Discussions continue with Australia and New Zealand to encourage participation as their knowledge and experience will bring significant contributions to all three work packages but particularly work package 3.

Developing Organisational Capability	Skills and Capability Framework	IN PROGRESS	DOC group members are working on paper showing connection between technical and complementary skills and increase awareness about the issue. It was prepared very initial document for further discussion among group members including to some extent alignments with GAMSO which is not easy task. The deadline is on 11 June, before next Webex call.
	Promotion Forum	IN PROGRESS	We prepared one-page draft flyer for the CES session in June. It is dedicated to senior and mid level management to attract attention to the outputs of our group.
	Setting vision in NSOs	IN PROGRESS	After the Communications Sprint that took place in Geneva at the end of April, it was decided that the Strategic Communications Team will take over the work on the paper on setting vision in NSO's. Our group will have possibility to give comments to draft paper.
	Other	The Organising Committee for the workshop on Culture Evolution will have first formal call at the beginning of June, just after the deadline to submit abstracts (end of May).
Supporting Standards	Linking GSBPM and GSIM	IN PROGRESS	The task team is meeting regularly every three weeks. A template for the mapping has been agreed. The mapping is being done at two different levels of GSIM: a) a more conceptual level, corresponding to the specification level in GSIM; b) a less conceptual level, corresponding to the execution level in GSIM. The task team is concentrating on phase 5 of the GSBPM both at a design and implementation level. The mapping execrise, including examples from different countries is quite demanding. For the time being, the task team will be able to do the mapping for phase 5 and 4 and maybe one additional GSBPM phase. However, the task team will probably not be able to complete the mapping by November.
	Core Ontology	IN PROGRESS	The development of the core ontology goes on at a steady pace, via virtual meetings (6 of them in the first semester) and offline exchanges. The construction of the model first focused on the integrated view between GSBPM and GAMSO, with discussions on the connection between the notions of activity and process. More recently, modelization of the statistical organizations and products was undertaken. A first version of the ontology will be available for presentation at the HLG meeting in November and afterwards submitted to public review.
	Alignment GSBPM and GAMSO	IN PROGRESS	The task team has produced a document specifying the activity to be done. Agreement has been reached. At next meeting in May, the task team will prepare and discuss first draft descriptions of overarching processes in GSBPM and their relationships to GAMSO corporate support activities.
	Metadata Glossary	IN PROGRESS	The work of the task team is proceeding regularly
	Other	The Supporting Standards Group is higly involved in the preparation of the June ModernStats World Workshop.
