Automatic generation of final documents in PDF format;After a grant application is prepared, all the information is captured on a set of contract documents that must be approved by your Agency’s management.
eGrants generates all Agency documents needed to submit a grant application. The application, answers to program questions and the terms of the grant agreement are prepared in printed and/or electronic PDF format. All documents are clearly identified with the grant, program year, project number and Agency.
The Agency’s authorized representative must approve all documents before submission. The Agency’s representative must apply a physical or electronic signature for the Grant Agreement, which becomes a binding legal agreement between the Agency and the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
Although the submission and most communications between the Agency and the Program Office reviewers are performed online using eGrants, each grant application must be accompanied by a corresponding set of final documents.
eGrants eliminates the time and cost required to print and mail paper documents by providing:
Automatic generation of final documents in PDF format;
Full online viewing and document management capabilities;
Version control and write-protection to secure the
integrity of legal documents;
Electronic signature capabilities to enable paperless
authorization;
Options to upload and file paper documents with
electronic documents, when needed.
The same requirements for document management, version control and authorization that apply to paper contracts also apply to the electronic versions.
