Data Management Plan Database
A Data Management Plan (DMP) describes how you will manage, store, secure, document, and share research data. DMPs can vary broadly across disciplines, methodologies, and data types. DMPs are a growing requirement for grants, and can also guide data practices for individuals and teams. DMP Assistant is a free webtool that guides you through drafting your DMP and the easiest way to start building a DMP.
Our database gathers examples from across the world including DMPs from the Digital Research Alliance of Canada, National Institutes of Health (NIH), Qualitative DMP Competition, DataOne, Digital Curation Centre, Liber, the Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance, and UC San Diego Research Data Curation into one searchable, open-access platform.

This is an example of a data management plan from the NIH, intended to collect genomic data and subsequent phenotype data from cancerous mice models.
This is an example of a data management plan from the NIH, intended to collect clinical, demographic, and dialysis data from research participants.
This DMP example show uses a case study of relativistic astrophysics and gravitational physics data to show how management strategies can support computational reproducibility in High-Performance Computing. Data are the inputs and outputs of the numerical simulation model.
This is a template DMP for mixed-methods research where data is obtained from surveys and qualitative interviews/focus groups.
This is a template DMP for researchers conducting statistics based research for Statistics Canada for use in external analyses and applications.
This is a template DMP for use in systematic review projects in any field.
This example DMP aims to collect genomic and phenotypic data from 36 human subjects.
This is a sample data management plan from the NIH, intended for submission to the NIMH, presenting a proposal to collect and analyze genomic, phenotypic, and clinical data from human subjects.
This is an example of a data management plan from the NIH, intended for submission to the NICHD, that details a plan to collect and deidentify clinical, laboratory and genomic data from 1000 participants.
This is an example of a data management plan from the NIH, intended to collect data from a phase 3 RCT on preeclampsia.
This is a sample data management plan from the NIH, intended for submission to the NHGRI, that provides an outline for a project involving human genomic and clinical data.
This is a DMP example for a fictional research study that will use a mixed-methods approach to collect participant data from interviews, surveys, and focus groups. This example uses the new Alliance Simplified Template (Funding Application Stage) which focuses on 5 questions that are helpful for a DMP that meets new Tri-Agency requirements.
This DMP aims to collect questionnaires, personal data, computer-based tasks & output, ECG’s, EDA’s, videos, audio recordings, data analysis files, linkage data, interviews, and transcripts. This data will be used for the Promoting Healthy Families project, which will assess whether Triple P and COSP can help promote healthy family relationships.
This sample data management and sharing plan proposes a secondary data analysis of existing kidney magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. This secondary data will be accessed from the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). The goal of this research is to produce a clinical dataset of kidney volume, estimated using a neural network.
This is a student data management record created by the vascular dynamics lab. Although it was created for students working within this lab and is structured for kinesiology related research, it has broad applicability as an exit protocol for labs working across Natural and Health Sciences.
This DMP aims to collect clinical data for 1000 women for an observational study to assess the effectiveness of a cardiovascular screening program and identify any potential biomarkers that are predicative for cardiovascular disease.
