Benefits of GrantsFlow

At FlowConnect we understand that grant managers would rather be engaging with the applicants rather than spending time on manual processing. This is why we have designed GrantsFlow. GrantsFlow makes the grants process as efficient, secure and collaborative as it can be. It handles the entire grants cycle from application review & assessment to processing acquittals, tracking funds and managing budgets. Challenged by the seemingly endless industry changes and evolving compliance requirements GrantsFlow takes much of the manual work out of the process. GrantsFlow is powered by award winning FlowConnect technology. It enables you to easily realign your grants processes and update reporting needs to ensure you remain competitive and compliant with government or industry guidelines Like all FlowConnect solutions, GrantsFlow is web based and supports all popular mobile platforms. GrantsFlow is delivered as a subscription service and includes all upgrades, so technology becoming obsolete is a thing of the past.

Full Grants Life Cycle Management

FlowConnect centralises & manages the entire grants life cycle. No longer will you have to consult separate spread sheets, files and paperwork. With GrantsFlow it is all there in one web accessible place. Just access the secure web portal to view applications, make assessments, process acquittals and manage budgets and reporting. You and your team members collaborate via a web accessible portal in real time. Documents and file notes can be shared and accessed in the cloud and our work flow engine automatically distributes tasks and next steps to the appropriate team members in an event driven and priority based manner.

Application process

The applicants can access applications online and submit them into the workflow. You can view and assess applications online without the need to look up physical files and keep track of the paperwork. GrantsFlow’s online document storage facility means you can access and share supporting paperwork with stakeholders and team members.

Acquittal process

GrantsFlow eliminates the complexity from claims or acquittals handling. Reporting is easy and automated through real-time online reports. You’ll also be able to manage all your reviews and follow-ups online. We understand that organisations have their own unique way of organising follow ups and other tasks and processes. This is why GrantsFlow models itself to your specific requirements and working methods. Whether your acquittal process is simple or involves multiple parties/stakeholders GrantsFlow will navigate you through the process with ease and efficiency.

Funds and Budgets Management

GrantsFlow has integrated financial structure that tracks the flow of funds from one or more funding bodies down to projects. You will always have full overview of the funding process and budgets. Track & manage funds with a few clicks and see how much of a grant remains etc. Integration with your existing financial systems is supported further adding value and enhancing efficiencies.

Protect Your Data

Securing your data is our foremost priority. GrantsFlow has a fault proof security layer to ensure that users get access to the functions and data they are allowed to see. Moreover your clients’ and your privacy is protected because only those team members with appropriate authorisation (based on a range of criteria which are relevant to your organisation), can access information on current and past grants.

Usability

GrantsFlow models your team’s work style and is therefore very easy to learn. On average our users require just a few hours training. That said we offer both telephone and online support for individual users of our system. We understand that organisations have their own unique way of managing tasks and processes. This is why GrantsFlow models itself to your work methods and specific requirements. Design your own web forms without difficulty and because we understand the importance of brand building, we ensure you brand appears in your portal as well as on all documentation generated by GrantsFlow. Reports are configured specifically so they meet your exact requirements.
