If you need help with your data submission, contact your Single Point of Contact (SPOC). Your SPOC will guide you through the submission process or direct you through the prescribed escalation route if additional support is needed.
Monthly reporting resources
DMS portal
Access your DMS portal, where you can submit your data and manage your reports.
Key deadlines
Stay on top of reporting deadlines to ensure your submissions are timely.
Monthly reports are always due by the 10th working day of each month.
Support and guidance
It is critical to complete as much information as possible for every submission to ensure data accuracy and streamline the reporting process.
Incomplete or inaccurate submissions may delay or jeopardise your funding and project performance reporting.
Take the time to ensure your data is thorough and up-to-date.
If your SPOC cannot resolve the issue, they will help escalate it to the appropriate support team.
Ensure that at least two people in your organisation have access to the portal and the data upload file. This ensures reports can still be submitted on time during annual leave or unexpected absences.

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero:

- sends communications when changes or updates are made to the DMS platform.
Portal opening dates are communicated in advance. Refer to the portal dashboard or contact your SPOC for specific timelines.
