Funding Consultant
Our funding consultants will take responsibility for running the entire application and tender process on your behalf, ensuring responses are prepared on time and are of the highest quality possible.
While every tender is different, we’ve learned that our responsibilities fall into three key categories, which are:
People
• Ensure roles and responsibilities are clearly defined and assigned – the fastest way to derail a project and the funding management process is to have unclear expectations
• Facilitate communication across the bid team – bid writing is a communication-intensive exercise
• Align objectives and focus – it’s critical that each member of the bid team is moving in unison with one another.
Timing
• Create and maintain a project plan for the duration of the application
• Implement agreed processes by which the bid is prepared, reviewed, and submitted
• Your funding management expert will also keep the entire project on track.
Documentation
• Manage the folders of funding documentation provided by the funders
• Manage governance and review processes, to ensure the bid receives approval before submission
• Ensure all the necessary bid documents are uploaded to the funders portal and submitted on time
• Maintain a library of collateral material for use for future applications.
