7.1 Monitoring Strategy Implementation Indicators
In Slovenia, the system of monitoring the development of information society is already in place and
based on the research of SORS, harmonised methodologies and Eurostat indicators. The results of
statistic surveys of the development of information society are also published on the DAE Scoreboard.
In addition, SORS carries out additional statistical surveys of indicators of an information society, which
will be considered in monitoring the implementation of the strategy and its potential updates.
The strategy’s preparation included the renewal of indicators for monitoring the development of the
information society at the European level, because the monitoring of some has become unnecessary,
some have proven methodologically inappropriate, and the need for new ones has become manifest.
The set of indicators determined for the monitoring of the success of the implementation of the
strategy is expected to be preserved. The key indicator of the success of the implementation of the
strategy will be, however, the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI)16.
Indicators for monitoring the achievement of general objectives of the strategy:

Digital Economy and Society Index – DESI is a composite index developed by the European Commission (GD CNECT) to
assess the development of the EU Member States in the field of digital economy and society. It is structured around five
principal dimensions: connectivity, human capital, use of internet, integration of digital technology and digital public services.
More information on DESI available at: http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda/en/digital-agenda-scoreboard.
