You can write pieces of guidance to be displayed by theme (e.g. generic guidance on storage and backup that should present across the board) or you can write guidance for specific questions. Writing generic guidance by theme saves you time and effort as your advice will be automatically displayed across all templates rather than having to write guidance to accompany each.

You will usually want your guidance to display on all templates, however there may be cases where you only want it to show for specific funders e.g. if you have specific instructions for applicants to BBSRC for example. This can be set too if needed.

If you wish to add an institutional template for a Data Management Plan, use the 'create template' button. You can create more than one template if desired e.g. one for researchers and one for PhD students.

Your template will be presented to users within your institution when no funder templates apply. If you want to add questions to funder templates use the 'customise template' options below.

To create a new template, first enter a title and description. Once you have saved this you will be presented with options to add one or more phases.

Funding bodies increasingly require their grant-holders to produce Data Management Plans(DMP), both during the bid-preparation stage and after funding has been secured. DMPonline has been produced by the UK's Digital Curation Centre to help research teams respond to this requirement, and any expectations that their institution or others may apply.

The DCC has worked closely with research funders and universities to produce a tool that assists researchers to produce an effective data management plan (DMP) to cater for the whole lifecycle of a project, from bid-preparation stage through to completion.

How the tool works

There are a number of templates within the tool that represent the requirements of different funders and institutions. Users are asked three questions at the outset so we can determine the appropriate template to display (e.g. the ESRC template when applying for an ESRC grant). Guidance is provided to help you interpret and answer the questions. This guidance is provided by researcher funders, universities and disciplines.

Getting Started

If you have an account please sign in and start creating or editing your DMP.

If you do not have a DMPonline account, click on 'Sign up' on the homepage.

Please visit the 'Help' page for guidance.

Additional Information

We are constantly improving the user interface and functionality of DMPonline. If you would like to contribute with feedback and suggestions, please contact us by emailing dmponline@dcc.ac.uk. You can also report bugs and request new features directly on GitHub

If you need to access plans from the earlier version of the tool please visit DMPonline v3.

- The 'Share' tab allows you to invite others to read or contribute to your plan.
- The 'Export' tab allows you to download your plan in various formats. This may be useful if you need to submit your plan as part of a grant application.

DMPonline has an active and growing user base, and we are grateful to the members who suggest ideas for new and improved features. We regularly take stock of how we can expand our service to meet these evolving needs.

A number of enhancements and new features are planned. These include:

- APIs to create plans, extract guidance and generate statistics from DMPonline
- Multi-lingual support so foreign language versions can be presented
- Locale-aware support to provide tailored instances for particular countries or other contexts
- A lifecycle to indicate the status of DMPs and allow institutional access to plans
- Support for reviewing Data Management Plans

We are currently revising the timeframes for our roadmap due to staff changes and pending recruitment. We expect to have a new version online by early 2016.

To make sure we’re on the right track, we work to develop our roadmap in conjunction with our DMPonline user group. If you would like to help shape our future plans, please join the group. More information on how you can engage with us is available under the 'Get involved' tab.

Current release

The current version of DMPonline is 4.2. This was released in August 2015 and included Institutional branding, optional guidance for funders, improvements to the question area, improvements to the admin interface, GitHub pull requests, new seed file, and an update of the gemfile.

The code is available on GitHub

Previous release

The previous version of DMPonline is 4.1. This was released in May 2015 and included a comment feature, improved guidance on signing in with institutional credentials, enhanced deployment guidance and proposed methods for internationalisation. Full details can be found in the release note and associated documents.

DMPonline is developed and maintained by the UK Digital Curation Centre. We’re a small team, and are happy to collaborate with others. There are various ways you can get involved:

Join the user group

We want to engage with our users more actively so invite you to join the user group. We run a listserv for the group that you can request to join. We also host periodic meetings to consult on our plans

Our user group sessions are usually focused around a certain topic (e.g. fleshing out use cases for an API) so invites are sent based on your areas of expertise. It is also helpful for us to know what type of user you are –researcher, institutional administrator, librarian, developer, funder etc.

Please let us know your interests and share your ideas for future developments via the mailing list so the community as a whole can feedback on them.

Customise DMPonline

DMPonline can be customised by institutions and disciplines. You can add templates for users in your organisation and tailored guidance that explains local support and services. Example answers can also be offered to help users understand what to write in a Data Management Plan. To do this you’ll need to request admin access, so please email us on dmponline@dcc.ac.uk.

Futher guidance on customising DMPonline is available on the DCC website.

Contribute to the code

DMPonline is a Ruby on Rails application. The source code is made available under a GNU Affero General Public License. This permits others to reuse the code freely, but obligates you to share the source code for any extensions in the same way. Please inform us if you install an instance of DMPonline and offer your contributions back to the community.

If you install an instance of DMPonline we require that you credit the DCC as originators of the tool. We recommend that the acknowledgement takes the form of the DMPonline logo with a link back to the DCC-hosted version of the tool.

We are willing to work with external developers to add new features to the tool. We are also open to delivering new features on a chargeable basis. If there are extensions you would like to see prioritised and have resource to support additional developer effort, please contact us on dmponline@dcc.ac.uk to negotiate terms.

Support our work

We are impressed by the uptake of DMPonline both in the UK and internationally and are really keen to hear how you are using the tool and promoting it in your context. We are aware that others have run training courses, developed guidance materials and advocated use of the tool. Please notify us of this as it helps to show impact.

We are currently investigating options for revenue generation. This will help us serve the increased demand more effectively and safeguard the long-term sustainability of DMPonline. Plans will be released for consultation soon but we also welcome your suggestions on how best to support our work.
