Overview
In today’s complex funding landscape, effective post-award management is essential for local governments striving to maximize grant outcomes. But in the absence of clear processes, the work of assigning and tracking departmental tasks, financial reporting, and maintaining compliance can often get messy.
To combat this, many local governments are adopting digital grants management solutions, allowing for streamlined cross-departmental collaboration and a seamless integration with existing financial software. Winning ARPA/IIJA grants is great, but it’s only the beginning: your agency’s journey to better grants management needs to start now.
Our hosts Abhi Nemani (former Chief Data Officer for the City of Los Angeles) and Anna Valdez (former Senior Program Manager for the State of Arizona) hosted part two of our three-part live webinar series, where they dove into examples of post-award challenges faced by peers, Federal Guidance’s unique requirements, and how these problems were ultimately solved.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- How a digital grants management solution can improve cross-departmental collaboration through effective task management
- The dangers of misreported grants and their effect on future budgets
- Why data integration with your existing financial system is key to better reporting
- Specific examples of grants, agencies, management challenges/opportunities, and new unique requirements from the recently updated Federal Guidance regulations
