This working group provides ongoing development and community support for the Capabilities Model and associated resources. The Capabilities Model allows institutions to assess their support for computationally- and data-intensive research and education, to identify and prioritize potential areas for improvement, and to understand understand how the broader community views Research Computing and Data support.
