  1. DSA at DANSUse caseHeiko TjalsmaPolicy Advisor DANS Session on Trust and CertificationEUDAT 3rdConference 2014Amsterdam, 25th September 2014

  2. DANS and Certification • Concentrated on DSA Certification 2011: DSA seal first time 2013: DSA seal second time • But also: Nestor Seal to be reached in 2014 • And ISO 16363: test audit ISO 16363 in 2011 certification ISO 16363 to be reached in 2015

  3. Looking back • A clear trend upwards, meaning: • Certification 2013 was a bit • Better organised • Of a higher quality In short: • Higher degree of professionalism • than certification 2011 • which in a way is logical as time advances • but is much helped by

  4. several factors, like: “Reaching ISO 16363 certification in 2015” being target number one of the DANS Strategic Policy 2011-2015 Support and responsibility on the management level Yearly DRAMBORA risk assessments

  5. Last but not least the wayof carrying out the actual work: • Responsibility given to the Cluster Certification and Data Contracts • Tasks divided amongst a broad range of the DANS staff with varying specialisations (IT, data-archiving, policy, legal etc.) • Long-term planning of the work

  6. How much effort did it cost? Basically not much work IF.... Most of the work has been done already - work processes have been made explicit - all the documentation is there - tasks are clearly divided - central coordination

  7. 2015 DANS DSArenewal has cost: Around 250 hours of work: policies 26 hours technicaldevelopment 106 hours writing of the self-assessment 98 hours project management 16 hours

  8. Conclusions • Commitment from the top is essential • Good coordination and planning also important • Making use of the different specialities of different staff members as the DSA requires knowledge of and experience in very various fields is needed

  9. Advantages of DSA • Improving your organisation by bringing it into a higher degree of professionalism • Forcing the organisation to make work processes more explicit and decide upon unresolved issues (for example preferred formats or “succession”) • Building trust towards data users, depositors, funders and research (ERIC’s!) or governmental organisations
