Data Management Plan ResourcesRIT is now participating in DMPTool, which means researchers can use the service to create and share data management plans for a variety of sponsors. Many federal and private sponsors now require data management plans as a part of all proposals. Some sponsors have given added weight to data management plans in the review process. DMPTool can guide you through the process of creating a data management plan and help you comply with sponsor requirements. |
