Data management is the development, execution, and supervision of plans, policies, programs, and practices that control, protect, deliver and enhance the value of data.
A data management plan is a comprehensive, written document that addresses all activities associated with data. It enables internal and external stakeholders to have a common understanding of what data they can access, utilize, contribute to, and where to find it. This template is intended to serve as a guide for organizations developing their own data management plans.
