  1. Business Register Re-engineering 19th International Roundtable Mario Ménard Statistics Canada October 2005

  2. Outline • Main factors considered for the re-engineering • Options • Objectives of the re-engineering • Business Population Profile • Scope of the project • System review • Time frame • Budget & efficiencies

  3. Main factors considered to initiate the Business Register (BR) Re-engineering • The register’s technological environment • The data model and system architecture • The rules for updating units of the Register and operational processes

  4. Options • Option 1 : to improve BR on current mainframe platform • Option 2 : to migrate the existing BR system from the mainframe to a UNIX environment • Option 3 : to undertake a complete redesign of the BR on a Windows or Unix platform

  5. Objectives of the re-engineering • Simplification, simplification, simplification… • Improve accessibility • Improve timeliness • Support integration with other systems • Link all economic surveys to the BR • Provide better tools for data collection and subject matter areas • Achieve 20% efficiencies in BR

  6. Business Population Profile

  7. Use of the operating structure instead of the statistical structure Simplification of identifiers Harmonize concepts and centralize storage of the legal structure Ability to store links between the legal entities and a given set of production units Eliminate “Time Travel” Scope of the project

  8. Simplify the workbench Better tools to update the Register and on-line updates Ability to produce quantitative measures to sustain operational research Improve the tools to easily link surveys to the Register Scope of the project (cont’d)

  9. Simple Enterprise • One record in the “BN Admin” File • One record in the “Statistical” File BN 123456789 ST S98765432

  14. Comprehensive review of computer systems • Rebuild the Register on another platform rather than simply migrate it • Required to satisfy the needs identified by the proposals • Built an environment that support real-time updates • Personalized the environment required to process the different sub-populations • MIS reports and analytical tools • Better integration with other existing system (CDS, TAX, Data Collection etc)

  15. Time frame • Three years to develop and test the new CFDB (April 2008) • We have started to develop the project structure and major deliverables • A detailed transition plan is being developed • It is an ambitious plan that will require the involvement of methodology, systems and collection and subject matter areas

  16. Estimated costs and potential efficiencies • Estimated cost : $ 7 millions (about 90 person-years) • Efficiencies: • Main frame $ 570 K • Operations $ 1.180 million Total: $ 1. 750 million
