Web-based solutions for application and review have many advantages over traditional paper-based methods. Where information needs to be shared and decisions made, when face-to-face meetings are not possible or happen rarely, the power of the internet is unsurpassed. Fund Manager administers and supervises the process of application, review and awarding grants for academic and scholarly projects, expediting communication, reducing costs and improving efficiency.

Some of Fund Manager's advantages:

Applicants apply - an easy step-by-step procedure allows submission of applications quickly and efficiently.

Applications are ranked  - based on scores and the system also provides a forum for awarding grants.

Communication is automated - email confirmations, reminders, requests are sent automatically.  

Reports and statistics - are provided online or are exported to a spreadsheet package for further analysis. 

Payments are monitored - giving a comprehensive overview of grants and awards.

Progress, reporting and follow-up is automated  - if necessary, reminders are sent out to applicants to return interim progress reports and financial statements.
