Background: Project funding requires data management plan. Issue: Funder's guidelines gap considering DMP (Fig. 2). Approach: RDMO allow to map variable guidelines. Method: In 2025, BMLEH's Federal Research Centre (RFE) launch an initiative to harmonize DMP templates in BMLEH's funding agencies FNR (Fachagentur Nachwachsende Rohstoffe e. V.) and BLE (Bundesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Ernährung). Result: In December 2025 FNR and BLE agreed to provide a minimal, common template on data management concerns. The DMP template address especially funding agency relevant content. Outlook: In future, DMP templates are open available in research data management tools, funding agencies receive the requested DMP via API. BMLEH's funding agencies and RFE plan to continue their cooperation to improve DMP's.
