In the transition towards Open Access (OA), institutional publishing is challenged by fragmentation and varying service quality, visibility, and sustainability. To address this issue, DIAMAS gathers 23 organisations from 12 European countries, well-versed in OA academic publishing and scholarly communication. The project will: 1. Map the current landscape of Institutional Publishing Service Providers (IPSPs) in 25 countries of the ERA with special attention for IPSPs that do not charge fees for publishing or reading. This will yield a taxonomy of IPSPs and an IPSP landscape report, a basis for the rest of the project. 2. Coordinate and improve the efficiency and quality of IPSPs by developing an Extensible Quality Standard for Institutional Publishing (EQSIP). This quality seal will professionalize, strengthen and reduce the fragmentation of institutional publishing in Europe. EQSIP will serve as a benchmark for a gap analysis of the data. This document outlines the plan for Dissemination, Outreach, Engagement, and Exploitation throughout the DIAMAS project. Its contents chart the keyways DIAMAS will build an audience, ensuring the efforts of DIAMAS reach their intended audience and have the expected impact, engaging stakeholders throughout. This was built with the project Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Key Exploitable Results (KERs), aligning closely to the Plan for Exploitation and Dissemination of Results (PEDR), outlined at the project’s initial proposal.
