Research in the price statistics discipline is not as reproducible as we feel it should be. Most researchers utilize proprietary datasets (for instance internal datasets owned by their NSOs as part of their official work, or purchased datasets that require considerable financial investment for others to acquire). Research is also usually done with proprietary software and is not shared with the research output. The result is that it is challenging to reproduce or replicate trialed methods, as well as to extend and teach (oneself or others) the methods in question.

This consequence is far from the intention of researchers, but is a result of the challenges within the discipline making adoption of good practices hard. For instance, it is not easy to find, access, or understand open datasets so that they can be used for research purposes. There is also a lack of discipline-specific guidance on how Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, or Reusable (or FAIR) principles can be applied to projects to make them reproducible.
