ESS.VIP business and information
principles
• Maximum reuse of existing process components and
segments.
• Meta data driven processes allowing
adaptation/parameterisation and extension to other
contexts.
• New business process built as a sequence of modular
process steps / services.
• Information objects structured according to available
information models and stored in corporate
registries/repositories in view of reuse.
• Parsimonious use of confidential data and preservation of
statistical confidentiality.
Eurostat
ESS.VIP solution and technical
principles
• Alignment to business needs and efficiency principle.
• Assembling and reuse of existing generic components.
• Service orientation and reusability of solutions
components in different context (MSs or statistical
domains).
• Adherence to industry and open standards as available
(e.g. Plug & Play)
• Separation of concerns is applied (OSI/Internet layers –
abstraction layers ensuring loose coupling).
• Security incorporated in the design of all solutions

ESS.VIP programme – challenges
Issues
Remedies
Business outcome driven strain on architectural developments
•
•
governance
technical architecture
Shortage of resources and tension on "production"
•
framework for priority
settings
Mobilisation of skills
•
•
pooling of competence
matrix allocation
Cultural change:
• corporate versus local
• dependencies
• from pure development to actual enterprise
transformation and value
•
•
•
communicating
coaching
training
Lack of full description and agreement on the "to be state" and
the supporting technical architecture
•
flexibility of programme
management
Federating heterogeneous architectures / infrastructure
•
flexible federation
models
Eurostat
ESS.VIP programme – opportunities
• Skills and experience in the ESS

• Industry standards (GSBPM, GSIM, Plug & Play)
• Corporate infrastructures at EU level
