This document outlines strategies to improve cooperation and quality in delivering National Accounts (NA) statistics from Primary Statistics (PS). It emphasizes the importance of establishing reliable, user-oriented data, addressing shortcomings, and ensuring clarity through structured communication. Key areas include developing methods for collaboration, defining service level agreements (SLAs), and conducting evaluations of processes to uphold quality standards. The mission focuses on adapting data structures, ensuring agreed quality, and fostering effective interactions between NA and PS teams.
