Key Performance Indicators and Targets | |||
---|---|---|---|
No. | Area | Indicator | Target |
1 | Germplasm availability | % of collection clean of pathogens of quarantine risk, viable, and in sufficient quantity to be immediately available for international distribution from medium-term storage (or local distribution for some tree species). | 90% of accessions available |
2 | Safety duplication | For seed crops: % of collection in long-term storage at two locations and also in Svalbard Global Seed Vault (except for tree species). For clonal crops: % of collection in long-term storage or in vitro in slow growth conditions or in cryopreservation at two locations. |
90% of seed accessions safety duplicated 50% of clonal accessions in cryopreservation (intermediate target), 90% of accessions duplicated in vitro |
3 | Data completeness and availability | Passport Data Completeness Index (PDCI) [29]: quantification of the completeness of the passport data based on the absence or presence of data points (range 0–10) | PDCI > 6 |
4 | Quality management | Implementation of a Quality Management System (QMS) | Eight minimum elements of QMS in place (see QMS section below) |
