Our Service Topics

Research Data Management

Effective research data management (RDM) is the backbone of reliable and reproducible research - be it in academia or industry. From organising data to ensuring compliance with regulations and funder requirements, RDM enhances the value, accessibility, and longevity of your work. 

We help you implement best practices to streamline your data workflows along the entire data lifecycle and advise you on how to create a FAIR-principles compliant Data Management Plan (DMP), as required by funders. We also train your teams - whether they are RDM practitioners or RDM trainers - on current RDM topics. And we advise you on how to build a robust RDM framework tailored to the needs of your team, project or organisation.

Open Science

Open Science fosters transparency, collaboration, and innovation by opening up the processes of creating, evaluating, sharing, exploring and storing scientific knowledge, practices and perspectives. Adopting Open Science practices increases your research impact, drives collaboration, and meets the growing expectations of funders and institutions. However, it also requires consideration of ethics, privacy and intellectual property issues, as well as compliance with applicable legislation, such as GDPR, and best practices, such as the CARE-Principles.

We can assist you in creating institutional Open Science or Open (Research) Data policies, as well as guide you through the transition to Open Science practices, offering practical strategies to share your work effectively and responsibly.

Digital Sustainability

Digital sustainability ensures the long-term usability, integrity, and accessibility of your digital assets in an ever-changing technological landscape. Without sustainable practices, valuable data and tools risk becoming obsolete or inaccessible.

But digital sustainability goes beyond preserving data - it’s also about minimising the environmental footprint of your digital operations. By adopting sustainable technologies and practices, you can reduce energy consumption, extend the life of your systems, and contribute to a greener future. 

We can help you align your digital strategy with your sustainability goals and advise you on the creation of a  digital infrastructure that’s efficient, resilient, and eco-friendly.
