Work Packages
WP 1 Institutional Level
The aim of WP 1 is to collect, analyse and document requirements for data analyses relating to the OA transformation from the institutional practice of scientific institutions. The results of WP 1 will be published in a report and formulated in recommendations.
WP 2 Publisher Agreements
The aim of WP 2 is to analyse publishing contracts relating to open metadata and data analytics research services and to identify best practices. The result is an inventory of German transformation contracts and a recommendation for action.
WP 3 Open Access in institutional Rankings
The aim of WP 3 is to critically accompany OA as an evaluation dimension of institutional rankings. To this end, interpretation and intervention aids for the management of scientific institutions will be developed on the basis of an inventory of institutional rankings. Secondly, data analysis aids will be developed and published to enable institutions and consortia to carry out benchmarking on the basis of data from university rankings.
WP 4 Open-Access-Reporting
The aim of WP 4 is to contribute to the improvement of data quality and to promote the standardisation of data and reports on OA transformation. As a result of WP 4, the proposal for a standard of the Alliance of Science Organisations for OA reporting will be further developed as part of an assessment process.
WP 5 Synopsis
The aim of WP 5 is to summarise the results from WPs 1, 2, 3 and 4 in a strategic recommendation on data practices for shaping the OA transformation.
WP 6 Trainings

The work planning is based on the life cycle of the Carpentry lessons and includes the call for teamwork, creation of the course materials, testing and revision phase.
WP 7 Tools
The aim of the WP is to set up and operate a digital toolbox that provides information on tools for collecting, analysing and visualising data relating to OA transformation.
WP 8 Networks
The aim of the WP is to initiate networks on specific issues relating to data work on OA transformation. At the heart of this is the dialogue on the topics of: Reporting, publishing data, bibliometrics and mentoring in the context of OA transformation.
