Building and Evaluating an RFP for Digital Grants Software 

A Practical Guide for Public Agencies 

Grants teams today face expectations for more transparency, more accuracy, and faster results. But when your agency is managing complex grant programs with spreadsheets, it becomes harder to keep up, maintain compliance, and minimize risk. 

Selecting the right digital grants management solution starts long before implementation.
