NISR Statistical Production Process Model

The National Institute of Statistics of Rwanda (NISR) has adopted the Generic Statistical Business Process Model (GSBPM) as its official statistical production process model to strengthen the quality, consistency, and modernization of official statistics. 

The GSBPM provides an internationally recognized end-to-end framework that guides all stages of statistical production, from identifying user needs and designing methods to data collection, processing, analysis, dissemination, archiving, and evaluation.

Through this adoption, NISR aligns Rwanda with global best practices while modernizing statistical production using digital tools, administrative data, and integrated workflows. The model is implemented alongside other modernization frameworks, including GSIM, GAMSO, and CSPA, and has been customized to Rwanda’s national context, legal framework, and institutional arrangements.

By institutionalizing the GSBPM, NISR reinforces its leadership role within the National Statistical System, enhances data governance and quality management, and ensures the production of trusted statistics that support national, regional, and global development agendas.
