An organization is seeking a cloud-hosted, web-based digital grants and results management platform to oversee every stage of the grants lifecycle. The desired system should support processes including call publication, application intake, evaluation, award, project implementation, monitoring, reporting, and closure. Additional requirements include robust data aggregation, visual dashboards, donor tracking, strong interoperability, comprehensive accessibility features, security standards, end-user training, thorough documentation, ongoing technical support, and clear exit provisions.

The ideal platform will accommodate both open and closed call grantmaking modalities and facilitate online publication of calls with eligibility criteria. It should offer an accessible, user-friendly applicant portal where users can register, submit applications, and track their progress, with built-in field validations to prevent incomplete submissions. Administrators need configurable dashboards with advanced filtering and categorization. Evaluator access must be secured and include automated conflict-of-interest processes, random application assignment, anonymized scoring, and online scoring forms with narrative feedback.

Additional features include automated workflows for application review, approval, and notification, automated award communications, tools for monitoring deliverables and key performance indicators, expenditure tracking, secure grantee upload portals for progress and financial data, and automated reminders for deliverables. The platform should provide real-time dashboards, the ability to analyze disaggregated data, built-in analytics, multiple export options (including Word, Excel, PDF, and CSV), and robust visualization modules to support results reporting and donor communications.
