Project Details
Description
Project Information: ProdTool – NPB 2.0: Micro-Data Analysis Tool 2.0 for comparative productivity studies at National Productivity Boards (Project acronym: ProdTool).
Project Outline: The project aims to enhance the micro-foundations of the analytical output of National Productivity Boards (NPBs) by expanding and consolidating the EU Micro-Data Infrastructure (MDI) and leveraging on the CompNet Dataset. It provides harmonised, cross-country comparable firm-level micro-aggregated data, analytical tools, and dashboards, combined with structured training and technical support. In addition, it establishes a coordinated network that allows National Productivity Boards and National Statistical Institutes to collaborate, share best practices, and jointly produce policy-relevant research. The project builds directly on previous EU initiatives, in particular the MULTIMSPROD programme implemented between 2022 and 2025 and the MiniProd 2019-2022.
