In this step in the post-FAIRification phase check whether you managed to reach the FAIRification goals you set initially [Generic]. If your goals have not yet been met, you may need to revisit some of the earlier steps, or, if that is unfeasible, you may need to adjust your goals. Furthermore, you can check the FAIRness of your (meta)data using FAIRness assessment tooling. If initially a pre-FAIR assessment was also done (step 5), you can compare the results from the pre- and post-FAIRification assessment. Also, such tooling can help track the progress towards FAIRness of your data [FAIRopoly].

Q: is there movement towards journals demanding some form of formal statistics when claims towards FAIRness of data are made? If so, that should be added here, since you’d need to objectively assess FAIRness for publications.
Expertise requirements for this step
This section could describe the expertise required. Perhaps the Build Your Team step could then be an aggregation of all the “Expertise requirements for this step” steps that someone needs to fulfil his/her FAIRification goals.

This phase is usually run in short sprints of 3-month.
