[Rdap] RDMS maturity models

[Jian Qin]

In case you missed it, the article on CMM for RDM is just published on the Journal of eScience Librarianship website:

Qin, Jian, Kevin Crowston, and Arden Kirkland. 2017. "Pursuing Best Performance in Research Data Management by Using the Capability Maturity Model and Rubrics." Journal of eScience Librarianship 6(2): e1113. https://doi.org/10.7191/jeslib.2017.1113

Abstract
Objective: To support the assessment and improvement of research data management (RDM) practices to increase its reliability, this paper describes the development of a capability maturity model (CMM) for RDM. Improved RDM is now a critical need, but low awareness of – or lack of – data management is still common among research projects.

Methods: A CMM includes four key elements: key practices, key process areas, maturity levels, and generic processes. These elements were determined for RDM by a review and synthesis of the published literature on and best practices for RDM.

Results: The RDM CMM includes five chapters describing five key process areas for research data management: 1) data management in general; 2) data acquisition, processing, and quality assurance; 3) data description and representation; 4) data dissemination; and 5) repository services and preservation. In each chapter, key data management practices are organized into four groups according to the CMM’s generic processes: commitment to perform, ability to perform, tasks performed, and process assessment (combining the original measurement and verification). For each area of practice, the document provides a rubric to help projects or organizations assess their level of maturity in RDM.

Conclusions: By helping organizations identify areas of strength and weakness, the RDM CMM provides guidance on where effort is needed to improve the practice of RDM.

I’m not sure of the status of the project, but you might also want to check out Jian Qin et al’s Capability Maturity Model for RDM: http://rdm.ischool.syr.edu/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ .

You might want to look at the ISO 16363 - (Audit and certification of trustworthy digital repositories) self-assessment guide put out by the authors of the standard.

We are interested in implementing a Research Data Management Services capability or maturity model at our institution to get a baseline of current services and identify gaps that can inform a strategic plan for building RDM infrastructure.  I’m interested in what models other have used or heard of.  I’m already aware of DCC’S RISE Framework and CARDIO.

Thanks in advance.
