This dataset presents the assessment tool used to analyze 20 Data Management Plan (DMP) templates on the Argos platform, along with the pre-print of the manuscript for an article that is about to be published in the Journal Biblios of the University of Pittsburgh. The main objective of this study was to investigate the need to implement a DMP at Universidad Centroamericana José Simeón Cañas (UCA) to improve accessibility, discovery, and reuse of research. Using a qualitative case study methodology, we worked with 10 selected research groups to evaluate and adapt a base model for the DMP. The results indicated a significant improvement in research data management and a positive perception from users regarding the processing and organization of their data. This set includes the DMP format generated for UCA, as well as recommendations for other institutions interested in adopting similar data management practices, contributing to the continued growth of scholarly output and the ethical and responsible management of data. This summary encapsulates the objectives, methods, results, and relevance of the dataset, providing a clear and concise overview of the work conducted.
