Government

Grant management is a complex challenge for (local) governments. Without a structured approach, grant processes become fragmented, opportunities are missed, and the administrative burden increases. This not only consumes time and resources but can also lead to underutilization of available grants.

Ignite Group supports local governments in grant coordination and management. We assist municipalities, provinces, and water boards in structuring their grant organization and linking grants to policy objectives. We achieve this with a proven three-phase model: initiation, application & execution, and accountability.

We provide support at both strategic and operational levels. Whether it’s about improving internal processes, establishing grant coordination, or assisting with specific grant projects, we ensure a more efficient and effective use of grants.

Grant coordination: structure and strategy for local governments
A well-organized grant process prevents fragmentation and increases the success rate of applications. We assist in aligning grant opportunities with policy objectives, optimizing grant schemes, and improving accountability and administrative handling.

With our three-phase model, we bring structure to grant processes and ensure an effective approach:

Initiation: We map out grant opportunities and link them to policy objectives. This prevents ad-hoc applications and helps municipalities, provinces, and water boards in selectively targeting schemes. Support and a clear division of responsibilities are crucial in this phase.

Application: A strong application begins with thorough preparation. We assist in engaging grant providers, drafting a well-substantiated project plan, and meeting all application criteria. This increases the likelihood of approval and prevents bottlenecks.

Execution & Accountability: After approval, we support with administration, monitoring, and compliance with grant conditions. This ensures the correct allocation of funds and provides valuable insights for future projects, preventing issues such as the need to repay funds.

By properly structuring grant coordination, grant management becomes more efficient and better aligned with policy objectives.

Digital solutions for managing grant administration
