This report details the activities, lessons learned, and recommendations from the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) pilot project as part of the Machine Actionable Plans (MAP) Pilot led by the California Digital Library (CDL) and the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) to enhance infrastructure and services around machine actionable Data Management and Sharing Plans (maDMSPs). CU Boulder was one of five main pilot sites competitively selected to participate in this project, and the project team represented a cross-campus collaborative group led by the Center for Research Data & Digital Scholarship (CRDDS) with representation from Libraries, Research Computing, the Research & Innovation Office (RIO), the Faculty Information System (FIS), and the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP).

Based on the pilot project activities, this report makes the following recommendations in order to leverage maDMSPs to enhance the value of the research data produced by CU Boulder researchers:

● Enhance collaboration across campus with regard to public access to research data and DMSPs.

● Ensure research data is integrated into a holistic strategy for research information management across campus.

● Develop a coordinated strategy and approach for persistent identifiers (PIDs) at the campus level.
