Hi All
I’m involved in running a workshop on delivering research data services which those of you involved in Research Data Management, especially around the procurement and use of services, may be interested in.
The event plans to bring together research support staff in institutions with a variety of service providers to discuss research data services. The workshop will address both open source software and proprietary tools, exploring the different
service delivery models that exist for each. See details at:
https://wiki.geant.org/display/EV/RDM-Services
We plan to address questions such as:
- What considerations should be made when assessing service options and selecting delivery methods?
- Can collective approaches across the scholarly commons community help us invest in sustainable open infrastructure?
- What steps should be taken to ensure procurement exercises are equally accessible to all providers?
The workshop will run adjacent to the
16th Research Data Alliance plenary in Costa Rica. In order to support international participation, all sessions will take place daily at 20:00-22:00 UTC (GMT).
Attendees can sign up for individual sessions.

We invite attendees to offer lightning talks and case studies on their experiences in procurement, open source software and service partnerships. It would be great if you could attend and possibly contribute a lightning talk or case study,
or just feed you experiences into discussion so we can co-develop useful resources on delivering RDM services!
