55

<h3>Decide what your DMP needs to cover</h3>

56

<p>Your DMP should follow the real project, not an abstract template. Begin with the project structure, funding requirements and the material types you have already identified.</p>

<h4>Project & plan identity</h4>

61

<p>Project title, lead, host unit, partners, funding programme, project dates, DMP owner, DMP version and last review date.</p>

62

</div>

63

64

<h4>Data, materials & outputs</h4>

65

<p>What will be created, collected, commissioned or reused; expected formats, physical carriers, scale, dependencies and master versions.</p>

66

</div>

67

68

<h4>Roles & responsibilities</h4>

69

<p>Who creates, documents, stores, backs up, controls access, approves sharing, deposits outputs and completes handover.</p>

70

</div>

71

72

<h4>Storage, backup & access</h4>

73

<p>Working locations, authoritative copies, backup routine, recovery, access groups, account ownership and security requirements.</p>

74

</div>

75

76

<h4>Organisation & versioning</h4>

77

<p>Folder structure, naming, version conventions, master files, working copies, export formats and change control.</p>

78

</div>

79

80

<h4>Metadata, provenance & documentation</h4>

81

<p>What information is needed to understand origin, creator, context, method, transformation, relationships, software and versions.</p>

82

</div>

83

84

<h4>Rights, ethics & protection</h4>

85

<p>Copyright, licences, consent, personal data, confidentiality, contracts, community or cultural protocols and restrictions.</p>

86

</div>

87

88

<h4>Sharing, publication & reuse</h4>

89

<p>What can be shared, with whom, when, under which licence, through which repository/platform and with what documentation.</p>

90

</div>

91

92

<h4>Retention, preservation & disposal</h4>

93

<p>What should remain after project end, what can be deleted, retention periods, preservation formats, repository/archive and handover.</p>

94

</div>

95

96

<h4>Resources & costs</h4>

97

<p>Storage, specialist software, digitisation, transcription, metadata work, repository fees, preservation, staff time and other data-management costs.</p>

<h3>Work from the actual template, call and binding project conditions</h3>

147

<p>Your internal working DMP can be broader than the formal funder template. For a funded project, however, the current DMP template, the specific call or call guide, the funding agreement or Grant Agreement and the deadlines stated there are decisive. The links below therefore point directly to DMP-relevant documents or document areas.</p>

<p>For the relevant approved FWF projects, the DMP is required for project start, is submitted with the funding agreement, uses the same language as the proposal, is versioned throughout the project and is submitted in its final version with the final project report.</p>

For artistic and arts-based research, this can include physical objects, audiovisual material, software, performances, process documentation and artistic outputs as well as conventional research data.</p>
