How OpenWater’s Grant Management System works:

• Entry, Review, and Reporting In One System: OpenWater is a complete grant management system: attract applicants; review submissions; select grant recipients; and analyze results.
• Notifications: Reduce your stress. OpenWater keeps everyone in the process on track to meet deadlines. You benefit from a birds-eye view of everything.
• Branded Site: OpenWater Grants integrates seamlessly with your website. Maintain your branding, control messaging, and make your organization look good.
• Ongoing Analysis: Use OpenWater to review data and refine processes.

Who Benefits?

A comprehensive grant management system provides benefits to all stakeholders.

• Your Funders: Funders appreciate knowing how funds are used and like to track the results.
• Your Reviewers: Reviewers enjoy a secure way to review applications, or recuse themselves if there is a conflict of interest.
• Your Grantees: Applicants favor applications that save their work. Winning grantees appreciate an easy-to-use reporting portal.
• Your Program: Board members like the sophistication of built-in marketing and promotion tools to promote grants, grant recipients, and the program’s mission.
• You: Your grant management workload is significantly reduced. (What will you do with all that extra time?)
