Activities Undertaken – Analysis on the Use of ICT in the Region
An “As-Is” analysis was conducted to determine; Software usage (emphasis on statistical software). Software requirements (needs and budgets). Use of communication platforms (websites, intranets,
databases).

As-Is Analysis [Use of Technology]-Adopted Process
![Page 10: 1 Chishuvo Gunda Workshop on Manufacturing Statistics Lusaka, Zambia, 4-7 th May 2009 SADC Development Account Project Strengthening statistical capacity.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649d8b5503460f94a72484/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
As-Is Analysis [Use of Technology]- Findings
Although there was found to be different software used across the countries, CSPro and SPSS seemed to be common amongst most all countries except in Mauritius and South Africa, where they are not used at all.
South Africa and Botswana had the highest license to user/ ratio.
South Africa had the greatest variety of software usage indicating less dependency on a particular software.
South Africa has an wide spectrum of GIS software with licenses that extended to website users within the public domain.
Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Zambia and Mozambique were the only countries using Devinfo platform.

11
As-Is Analysis [Use of Technology]- Findings
Apart from South Africa NSOs’ websites in the region; Were updated infrequently. Had broken links indicating poor website maintenance
programs. Did not have statistics databases. Time outs and poor bandwidth. Have poor user interfaces. Non-optimised graphics and documents causing time outs.
Websites generally not user friendly and website analytics not
being monitored.

As-Is Analysis [Use of Technology]- Findings
Only Mauritius, Mozambique and South Africa had intranets.
South Africa was the only NSOs with a commercial intranet.

13
As-Is Analysis [Use of Technology]- Findings
The greatest number of statistical software needs were identified in Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe
Although each country’s needs were unique, there was enough basis to explore the possibility of combining the regional needs and buying software under consolidated contracts.
Identified needs were much higher than budgets with the greatest differences being in Zimbabwe and Swaziland.

Impact on Manufacturing Statistics
Website will; Provide a dissemination platform for reporting on what is
happening in the member states. Will encourage interaction between member states as a result of
the community of practice e.g. discussion forums.
Current workshop will help Direct minimum standards /reporting requirements needed for
establishing a regional picture of what is happening in the area of manufacturing statistics.
Formulate the basis on which harmonisation of processes and instruments in manufacturing statistics can be determined.
