Registered Service Providers
What are Registered Service Providers?
Registered DSpace Service Providers (RSPs) are companies that provide services around DSpace: they host, implement, maintain, develop, and customize your repository. More than that, RSPs have made a strong investment in DSpace and are fully committed to working cooperatively with the DSpace community to best serve its users.
If you are looking for a company that provides services for your DSpace repository, we strongly encourage you to consider only Registered Service Providers. One way to strengthen the DSpace community is to request in tenders that applying companies must be Registered Service Providers.
Beginning July 1, 2022, there are three tiers of Service Providers: Platinum, Gold, and Silver. In each category, a Service Provider could also become Certified after contributing a certain amount of hours to supporting the technical community of DSpace. Certified Providers participate in Expression of Interest calls for DSpace development coordinated by the DSpace Governance. Any Provider can apply for certification and the tiers are based on technical and/or monetary contributions to DSpace. To become a Service Provider, contact michele.mennielli@lyrasis.org.
Registered Service Provider Program Tiers
The Registered Service Provider Program has three tiers: Silver, Gold, and Platinum.
The Registered Service Providers below are listed in alphabetical order and are added as Service Providers submit a signed agreement.

Platinum DSpace Provider
$50,000 USD or 1000 hours of contribution (or a combination of the two)
Program Entry Fee*: $5,000
*The Program Entry Fee is due at the beginning of each term and it is deducted from the total amount due by the RSP at the end of each yearly term.
Platinum Service Providers contribute a value of over $50,000 annually to the program, either financially or in-kind.
The Certified Platinum Providers contribute a minimum set of hours of technical support (e.g. code contribution, code review, bug fixing, etc) to be at this level.
Current providers are 4Science, Atmire, PCG Academia, and The Library Code. Of these, 4Science, Atmire, and The Library Code are Certified Providers.
Platinum Service Providers have a seat on the DSpace Leadership Group with voting rights.
