Public sector institutions and non-for-profit organizations receive considerable funding from external sources. They must meet their individual sponsor requirements without compromising their internal accounting processes. Grants, donations and awards must be managed over their whole lifecycle– from internal draft and application to consumption and final close-out. In the funding agreement, the sponsor outlines only the general purpose of funding. The agency must decide before the execution of a project which sponsor should fund it.
Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions help securely manage the many formats of content (emails, contracts, application forms, reference letters and so on) from multiple sources related to grants management, and in compliance with increasingly stringent regulations governing records management, privacy and access to information.
