Data Management Cost Tools
- Costing Data ManagementThe UK Data Service has developed a simple activity-based costing tool that can be used for costing data management in the social sciences. It doesn't cover the whole data life cycle and only looks at only the resources that would be needed to preserve and make research data shareable beyond the primary research team. These resources may include: people, equipment, infrastructure and tools to manage, document, organise, store and provide access to data.
- Costs of Data Management (Utrecht University)To help you estimate the costs of data management an overview of possible costs per research phase and research activity is presented.
- Data Management Costing Tool (TU Delft)This is tool is for researchers and staff to help determine costs and staffing requirements in project proposals.
