Abstract:
The data management tool will be based on the requirements of US funding agencies and the institutions conducting the research, and will build upon the DMP Online tool developed by the UK Digital Curation Centre. It will allow researchers to quickly initiate a data management plan online. The tool will help researchers answer various data management questions relating to their project, such as how data will be documented and made available for public or secondary uses, how data quality will be assured, backup procedures, and preservation plans. It will also aid institutions in identifying costs associated with data management, and help with forward resource planning.
This tool will:
- Be web-based
- Allow users to generate and export data management plans
- Connect users with information about funder requirements, related resources, and institutional resources/services
- Initially offer data management plan templates for NSF guidelines
- Offer local account access as well as some authentication methods to affiliate users with institutional resources

Anyone can create data management plans. If you are a researcher from one of the partner institutions, you can log in as a user from your institution. By being affiliated with your institution, you will be presented with institution specific guidance (displayed as resource web links) to help you complete your plan. If your institution is not a partner, you can create your own account.
