The use of digital platforms, such as Computer Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI), allows for real-time data submission and validation, significantly reducing report release times. New survey methods and technologies are continuously explored, with recent implementations in enterprise surveys like CAPEX and ASUSE. Short duration surveys have also been introduced to meet the demand for high-frequency socio-economic indicators.
