There is no formal control over an organization completing a DCAM Assessment and the resulting score. There is support as follows.

EDMC provides tools and has two approved vendors (Pelustro & KickTag) that provide a fully configured DCAM Assessment survey platform. All of these tools are configured with the approved scoring methodology. The EDMC Tools are available on EDMConnect on the DCAM v2 Tools page.

The EDM Council also maintains a DCAM Authorized Partner (DAP) program. The DAP is the training and certification mechanism by which consultants and advisors are licensed to deliver DCAM-based assessments and to consult on the execution of the DCAM Framework. The goal of the DAP program is to verify that representatives of the DAP are fully versed in the data management principles and capabilities of DCAM.
