The software is used by other funders so should have a familiar feel to some applicants. Applicants will be able to submit and manage their applications from the pre-award stage through to post-award and completion of the award stages. All grant and capacity building applications must be submitted using the forms available on the grants management system and should not be submitted using the old electronic forms.
