Back to STES Timeliness Framework
This page contains links to detailed documentation on how the assessment of user requirements can aide in improving timeliness or reducing costs in the production of short-term economic statistics. The papers below provide detailed information on activities relevant to this topic which have been undertaken within statistical organisations. Issues covered include:
• Assessing the timeliness and accuracy requirements for different users (e.g. the need for aggregate vs detailed level of estimates)
• Refining the survey program to focus only on key user requirements
