Grants Management Systems & Software

Grantmaking is all about making a difference. It’s about improving people’s lives and making communities better places to live. With shrinking budgets, there’s more scrutiny than ever from leaderships, local constituents, Congress and others to show results. Yet, grant makers are struggling to demonstrate outcomes and report on results.

TrueTandem integrates Microsoft’s Grants Manager solution to help organizations manage and automate the grants process from solicitation through approval and award.

Microsoft Grants Manager Accelerator

The Microsoft Grants Manager solution accelerator is a customizable solution designed to be tailored to your agency’s grant processes. It helps you streamline grant management tasks to stay on time and within budget while allocating more time to evaluating solicitations and distribution of funds.

Grants Manager integrates with legacy applications, incorporates a cloud-based website for grant applicants to interact with your agency, and gives grantors instant access to where every grant is in the process, along with status and any issues that need to be addressed.

Grants Manager Accelerator allows you to easily manage:

• Grant Reviewers
• Grant Applicants
• Awards
• Proposals

Automation

The built-in workflow assistant automatically tracks the progress of the application including next step tracking, email notifications and alerts. The system can be integrated with www.grants.gov and/or other legacy systems and provides robust reporting capabilities that allow you to make budget projections, compare awards in a summary view and provide additional ad-hoc reporting.

Integration

The solution also leverages familiar Microsoft tools like and Office to help manage the grants workload from a single, centralized location with an at-a-glance view of all incoming mail and communications. And, because every organization handles grants a little differently, the solution is extremely flexible and can be tailored to work the way you do.
