As part of the modernization effort in Statistics Norway, there have been a coordinated and focused effort to base the modernization on the ModernStats standards, including, GSBPM, GSIM and CSPA. Operationalizing these standards in a systematic way have always been a challenge, but through the use of Open Source tools, and creating Open Source components, and using modern system development techniques and best practices we’re closer to being able to put all the standards in production wide use on the new production platform Statistics Norway is creating as part of its modernization efforts.
