Post-award Management

Managing grants effectively involves robust post-award reporting to ensure compliance, transparency, and accountability for each project.

After the Proposal has been awarded by a funder, the Institution may need to adjust the estimated budget and cost, which can easily be adjusted in GrantsNow before sending it to your ERP Cloud. All of your post-awards reporting can be produced and viewed in GrantsNow.
