Abstract:
|
During the spring through fall of 2009, the ICSP, comprised of the heads of 14 statistical agencies and chaired by the U.S. Chief Statistician, began an informal strategic planning process. This session will describe a little about that process, but give primary emphasis to the outcome of those discussions, i.e., the ICSP's vision of future directions for the Federal Statistical System. The vision emerging from that process involves building on the tradition of collaboration to achieve new levels of efficiency, data quality, and utility for data users through innovative efforts such as a system-wide approach to statistical uses of administrative records and more common data dissemination strategies and tools. Members of the ICSP will discuss these activities and how they hope to implement them in the coming years.
