資料管理計畫為一份書面檔案，檔案內容是要說明於研究研究過程中所獲取的研究資料將如何管理、分析和儲存，大致上都會包含下列的重要事項（MIT Libraries，n.d.）：研究計畫和資料管理方式；資料的取用、儲存和再利用；資料的封存等規劃。

A Data Management Plan (DMP) determines how data should be collected, normalized, processed, analyzed, preserved, used and re-used over its lifetime. A data management plan associated with a research study can include comprehensive information including the types of data, metadata standards used, policies for access and sharing, and plans for archiving and preserving data to make accessible over time. DMPs ensure data will be properly documented and available for use by researchers in the future and are often required by grant funding agencies such as the National Science Foundation.
