Data management planning tool or service
ARGOS is an open-source, web-based platform to help researchers, institutions, and funders plan how research outputs will be managed, shared, and preserved.
You can use ARGOS to create Data and Software Management Plans (DMPs, SMPs), or other types of plans often required by funders or research organisations.
It guides you step by step through the planning process, using templates based on different policies or project needs.
ARGOS supports team collaboration and peer review of plans. It also connects with other systems like repositories, research information systems (CRIS), and notebooks to automatically fill in or link useful information.
Plans can be downloaded in different formats or shared online, and the tool helps you follow good practices like FAIR, Open Science, and institutional rules.
Whether you're writing a basic plan or organising your research workflows more broadly, ARGOS gives you a flexible space to manage and document your research activities clearly and consistently.
