What Is the Grant Management Application?

The Grant Management application provides functionality to manage sponsored projects for universities, academic medical centers, research hospitals, research institutes, non-profit organizations, and K-12 school districts. Grant Management works in conjunction with the Infor Financials, Procurement, and Human Resources to provide a solution that integrates planning, payroll, purchasing, and accounting processes for optimum administration, tracking, and reporting of sponsored projects.

Grant Management is a post-award solution.

Grant Life Cycle

At a high level, the typical grant life cycle is divided into pre-award and post-award phases:

  • The pre-award phase includes processes that occur before a grant is awarded, such as identifying funding sources, preparing, and submitting the actual grant application.

  • The post-award phase includes processes that occur after a grant has been awarded such as grant setup, budgeting, transaction processing and control, and reporting.
