What is grant management?
![Printer-friendly version Printer-friendly version](https://alumni.tgci.com/sites/all/modules/print/icons/print_icon.png)
Any administrative decisions and systems involved in applying for grants (pre-award) or fulfilling responsibilities after winning a grant (post-award) fall under the topic of “grant management”. It is important for your organization to meet generally accepted standards as well as requirements specified by the funding source.
Pre-award grant management involves issues such as: determining indirect costs, budgeting, securing matching funds, establishing and documenting collaborations, preparing job descriptions, specifying expected outcomes, and much more.
Post-award grant management involves issues such as: purchasing, accounting, program implementation, coordination with partner organizations, handling facilities and equipment, evaluating, reporting, and much more.
