This release just crossed the wires and I thought it would be of interest to a few readers. Seems like CGI Federal and Grantium have teamed up to provide a hosted grants management solution focused on American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grants.

“CGI has partnered with Grantium (www.grantium.com), a world-leading enterprise grants management solution provider, to offer Grantium’s G3™ Grants Recovery Act Management System (GRAMS). With ARRA compliance requirements built in, GRAMS allows agencies to rapidly automate their grant processing. The G3™ GRAMS solution also offers agencies the option to either process applications through Grants.gov, or through the G3™ Front Office Applicant Portal.

“To get agencies up and running quickly, GRAMS is offered as a hosted application at CGI’s Federal Shared Service Center in Phoenix, AZ, which is fully compliant with federal financial management shared services and security standards.”

An interesting approach to an urgent problem! (Disclosure: TCG is a Grantium Solution Partner.)
