Compliance Reporting
Some funders require documented compliance with your DMP. Ultimately, the responsibility for compliance is up to the PI and isn't necessarily monitored or tracked by the University.
When documenting compliance, consider the following:
- Is your DMP up-to-date?
- What changes need to be made to your DMP?
- What data have you publicly shared?
- What data hasn't been shared yet?

Compliance will be evaluated and documented [Annually] during the Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR) and submitted to the [Grant] Program Officer.
