18. Mapping the institutional landscape
• What systems are in place?
• Where are these held? e.g. library, research office, ethics…
• What information is gathered and could be exchanged?
• What does the institution want / need
– event tracking e.g. award made
– automated messaging
– allocation of resources
– harvesting info for reporting
– enable data deposit…

19. Utilising PIDs
Potential to use EC grant IDs in plans e.g.
• Harvest grant IDs from OpenAIRE API
• Provide look up when entering project details
• Prepopulate metadata fields
• Enable join up of DMP with other outputs
