GrantDesk
Proposed grants management pilot

Scope a focused grants pilot for one agency program.

Discuss a proposed fixed-price pilot for application intake, staff review, and grant program recordkeeping. The sample screens below are illustrative only. GrantDesk is not a working application, and all implementation, security, and agency purchasing requirements must be separately approved.

Offered by JS Technology Solutions, Inc. All examples are fictional and illustrative. No GrantDesk customer, working application, production integration, or security certification is claimed.

Proposed workflow

Plan one agency-approved grant program.

These stages illustrate a potential pilot scope. They are not deployed GrantDesk features or a working application.

01

Intake

Identify the application fields, required materials, and accessibility needs approved by the agency.

02

Screen

Discuss how agency staff could review eligibility and missing information for one program.

03

Review

Define the agency's own reviewer assignments, scoring process, and decision authority.

04

Record

Agree on proposed award, reporting, privacy, and retention requirements separately.

Illustrative workflow

A preview of the proposed pilot.

The fictional sample below illustrates possible dashboard and review layouts. No working application, agency account, or production workflow exists.

Illustrative sample workflow only. These are fictional examples, not a working application, existing customer environment, or implemented agency portal.

Proposed pilot scope

Agency requirements to discuss.

Each item below is a possible future requirement, not an existing production feature.

Potential applicant intake

Identify agency-approved application fields, documents, accessibility requirements, and privacy constraints.

Potential staff screening

Discuss how authorized staff could review eligibility and completeness without delegating agency decisions.

Potential reviewer workflow

Define the agency's actual reviewer assignments, scoring rubric, conflict procedures, and approval rules.

Potential award recordkeeping

Assess what agency-approved award records and reporting fields a scoped pilot might need.

Potential subrecipient review

Review whether agency staff need proposed monitoring notes, reporting dates, or follow-up records.

Potential program reporting

Identify agency reporting requirements and independently assess whether any proposed implementation is appropriate.

Automation planning

Possible future automation stays under agency control.

No production AI, automated applicant screening, reviewer scoring, or agency data workflow has been implemented.

Possible intake review

An agency may discuss whether staff-reviewed checks for missing information would be useful in a separately approved pilot.

Possible reviewer preparation

Any future draft summaries or reviewer-support feature would require agency approval, implementation, and human review.

Possible deadline reminders

Reporting dates and follow-up reminders are potential requirements only. No production monitoring or alerting system exists.

Any potential automation or AI-assisted feature would require separate scoping and agency approval. Authorized agency staff retain every eligibility, scoring, award, purchasing, and applicant-communication decision.

Potential data mappings

Agency integrations must be scoped and verified.

No finance, identity, document, case-management, or agency system connector is deployed. Every proposed data connection would require separate agency approval and technical review.

Finance records
Potential agency-approved reporting or accounting mappings only.
Agency program systems
Any case or program data connection must be separately evaluated and approved.
Identity and access
Staff access and identity requirements have not been implemented.
Document handling
Potential document access, retention, and privacy controls require agency review.

No existing production connections

Any agency data, file mapping, API, identity connection, or applicant portal is a proposed pilot requirement, not an established implementation.

Actual feasibility, permissions, security controls, and scope must be confirmed before any agency data is received.

Proposed scope: agency compliance review · subrecipient monitoring · application intake · review and scoring. Review the pilot purchasing guide and proposed technical scope.

Practical resource: grant subrecipient monitoring and reporting checklist.

Proposed security requirements

Agency security controls must be agreed and verified.

No production applicant environment, implemented security control, completed agency assessment, or certification is claimed.

Applicant privacy requirements

The agency determines approved data fields, permitted use, privacy terms, and retention before any real information is received.

Proposed recordkeeping

Any audit trail, reviewer history, or reporting record would need separate scoping, implementation, and verification.

Agency security review

Hosting, access controls, encryption, monitoring, and incident response are proposed requirements, not existing verified controls.

Human decision authority

Authorized agency staff retain all eligibility, scoring, award, purchasing, payment, and applicant-communication decisions.

Agency data ownership

Data access, export, retention, and deletion requirements would be agreed in writing before a separately approved pilot.

No claimed production guarantees

No live applicant portal, production monitoring, verified uptime, delivery guarantee, or existing agency implementation is represented.

Proposed pricing

Published pilot and potential subscription pricing.

All work requires a separately agreed scope, actual implementation, and the agency's own purchasing approval.

Agency purchasing

Your agency determines its purchasing process.

No exemption, software contract vehicle, automatic approval, or purchasing shortcut is represented.

Proposed pilot

A fixed-price pilot

The proposed $6,500 pilot covers 60 days and one separately agreed program or cycle. Your agency determines the required purchasing process, approvals, documentation, and whether a quote or purchase order is appropriate.

Scope a proposed pilot
Separate decision

A potential later subscription

Any future implementation or subscription would require its own agreed technical scope, verified agency requirements, and separate purchasing approval. No working application or deployed agency system exists today.

Review the purchasing guide

Discuss one agency-approved pilot.

Review the illustrative sample workflow and decide whether a separately scoped program is worth considering.

Common questions

Clear boundaries for a proposed pilot.

Is GrantDesk already a working application?

No. The public page contains an illustrative sample workflow only. Any agency application or production environment would need separate approval and implementation.

Are AI features currently deployed?

No. Any AI-assisted or automated feature is only a potential pilot requirement. Agency staff retain every eligibility, scoring, and funding decision.

Are agency systems already connected?

No. Finance, identity, case-management, and applicant data connections have not been implemented and require separate agency review.

Who determines the purchasing requirements?

Your agency's procurement team determines its purchasing process, documentation, approvals, and whether a quote or purchase order is permitted.

What is included in the proposed pilot price?

The published $6,500 pilot covers 60 days and one separately agreed program or cycle. Specific implementation, security, data access, and acceptance requirements must be agreed with the agency.

Is a production security certification claimed?

No. No security certification, agency customer, production integration, implemented applicant portal, or measured customer result is represented.
