DMP phases.
| DMP Phases | 0 Before proposal submission | Typically knowledge of instrument scientist or RDM team (static parameter) |
| 1 Proposal submission | Typically knowledge of the user, with support by the facility administration and RDM team. | |
| 2 Accepted experiment planning | Typically knowledge of the user, with support from the facility administration and instrument scientist. | |
| 3 Data Collection/Data processing/analysis | Typically knowledge of the user, with support from the instrument scientist. |
