Data Collection

Components Now Future

Descriptive statistics Consolidated data by industry and geographic area (province and district) exported from Bizwell into MS Excel

Increased data volumes will enable enhanced descriptive data interpretations beyond frequency reporting

Inferential statistics No inferential analysis at present

Inferential analysis and reporting across all data fields requires increased capacity and specialised systems

Basic cross-tabulations

System incorporates a basic analysis tool enabling cross-tabulation of variables

This functionality may be enhanced

Data Analysis

Components Now Future

User reporting Data output charts can be automatically generated from user profiles for specified date range & sites

Narrative descriptions to facilitate accurate interpretation of charts and easy export to MS Word with customisable formatting envisaged

Government & key stakeholder reporting

Monthly summary reports prepared and disseminated to SANAC/NDoH, PACs/PDoH and SABCOHA Boards

Automated monthly reports

Public reporting Real-time data charts can be accessed from the homepage

More comprehensive and adjustment to reported need

Industry reporting Aggregated data by major industry division accommodate through above reporting

Increased data volumes will enable company-industry comparative reporting functionality and major industry group inferential analysis and reporting
