Innovation at Statistics Netherlands Barteld Braaksma and Marleen Verbruggen  The Innovation programme and the Innovation Lab  Th I ti d th I ti L b  Innovation topics and three examples Why an innovation programme? External pressure (new output channels. cooperation) Technological Internal ideas challenges g (empowerment; (big data, synergies) social media) 1 Innovation at Statistics Netherlands 1

  2. How does the programme work(1/2)? Road map for innovation tracks 1. Rough idea 2. Enriched idea 3. Find sponsor 4. Concrete proposal 5. Proof of Concept 6. Implementation Not starting from methodology (theory) But from idea for application (practice) The best way of having a good idea is having a lot of ideas 2 Innovation at Statistics Netherlands How does the programme work(2/2)? • Innovation program supports and facilitates tracks • Survival of the fittest (accept failure) ( p ) # ideas > # PoCs > # implementations • Resources from initiator, sponsor, methodology, IT • Collaboration with external partners • Strong support from top management • Light management and limited paperwork (‘just do it’) 3 Innovation at Statistics Netherlands 2

  6. What are our experiences so far? • Innovation programme works (50 ideas during 2012) (50 ideas during 2012) • Many non-statistical issues show up (legal aspects, IT requirements) • New sources come with new challenges (methodology, recruitment, robustness) 10 Innovation at Statistics Netherlands 6
