Administration & Funding.
Thanks to the TRUST-GRANTS™ Platform, all the user profiles are stored and managed in one single place, allowing an easy and fair tracking of the information in each single phase of the Open Calls workflow.
The platform allows an easy management of the status of the applications (e.g., eligible, under evaluation, approved, monitored) and the subsequent funding steps are described.
Proposals evaluation dashboard.
The TRUST-GRANTS™platform becomes the principal interface for the received applications. The selected evaluators are able, by accessing their own profile, to see the applications they have been assigned to (but not the concurrent ones assigned to other reviewers), and perform their evaluation.
A comments option is available on the voting system, allowing evaluators to motivate their choice to the other voting partners.
After the closure of each call, a ranking of the applications helps determine which one has been approved for funding. Applicants can track the status of their application directly from their dashboard.
A Streamlined Monitoring Reporting System.
After the applicants have been selected for funding, the platform still continues to be the primary environment for assessment and monitoring of the open call results: applicants are invited to upload all the periodic reports eventually foreseen in their dedicated space and make them available for the users in charge of monitoring.
The monitoring system allows managers & partners to easily access the funded reports and insert comments.
