Quality assurance
|
The State Statistical Committee
implements the quality management system in accordance with the international
standard ISO 9001. In 2013 the external audit of the quality management system
was conducted in the State Statistical Committee, and in August of the same
year for the first time ISO 9001:2008 international certificate of conformity
was obtained in the direction of "Production and dissemination of official
statistical data". After a major change of the international standard in
2015, all documents of the quality management system were redesigned in
accordance with the requirements of the international standard ISO 9001:2015.
According to the results of certification audit conducted on March 09-10, 2017,
the apparatus of The State Statistical Committee and 13 local statistical
offices where QMS is applied, and then the apparatus of the State Statistics
Committee according to the results of recertification audit conducted on March
02-06, 2020 and another 17 local statistical offices where QMS is applied, then
according to the results of recertification audit conducted on February 13-17,
2023, the apparatus of the State Statistics Committee and 45 local statistical
offices where QMS "Production and dissemination of official statistical
data" is applied, have received the international certificate of
conformity 9001:2015 in the direction of "Production and dissemination of
official statistics". http://stat.gov.az/menu/2/quality/en/sertifikat_ISO_9001_2015.pdf Seminars on QMS are organized
for the staff of the structural units and local statistical bodies at least
once a year. In 2010 and 2017, Global Assessments of the National Statistical
System of the Republic of Azerbaijan were conducted by the European Statistical
Office (Eurostat), the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE),
and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA). In line with the recommendations
of experts, improvement activities in this area are being carried out.

Quality assessment
|
On the basis of the “Audit
Program” approved annually, internal audits are carried out in the departments
of the Office and in the local statistical bodies where the GIS is applied.
Audit teams are formed to conduct audits and an individual audit plan is
approved for each structural unit. The audit team conducts inspections in
accordance with the audit plan. Internal monitoring of quality aspects in the
State Statistics Committee is carried out in a centralized manner by the authorized
structural unit (Quality Management and Metadata Department) and an annual
“Analysis by Management” document is prepared and submitted to the management
based on the results of audits. The members of the audit team (auditors) are
instructed before each audit by the auditor general, as well as through
seminars organized at least once a year. The activity of the State Statistics
Committee is “Quality management systems. Requirements ”ISO 9001: 2015 is one
of the strongest strengths. Increased workload due to incomplete transition to
electronic documentation and parallel paperwork, late adaptation of staff
(employees) to the requirements of the new standards are the weakest
weaknesses.

Cost and burden
|
Collection of information from respondents online is one of the most important steps for improving efficiency. Also, in the official statistical reports, constant work is being done to reduce the burden on respondents: for example, data for indicators that can be calculated based on different indicators are not collected. In addition, regular assessments are made to determine the indicators that are in urgency and needless. There is a "Concept for reducing statistical burden on respondents", approved by the Order number 16/07s of the State Statistical Committee of the Republic of Azerbaijan dated April 30, 2014.

Data compilation

Editing discrepancies in data quality monitoring is also performed at macro level, ie descriptive statistics for individual indicators are calculated at regions, regions, towns and villages. Meanwhile, the mean quantity of critical quantities, the median price, the mean value error, the standard deviation, the variation coefficient, the coefficient of stability, and so on. mathematical-statistical characteristics are defined. Indicators that are large in variation are studied for editing separately. Conditional rehabilitation (imputation) of information released during supervision is carried out by appropriate methods. Medium quantitative, near-neighbor, regression model, and so on during correction and restoration of gaps (missed figures). methods are used. Households that do not respond are considered in the recalculation of weights.
