  • Patent number: 8589308
    Abstract: A web-based grant management application and method is described. Registration information pertaining to a grant requestor is received at a web-based portal. A local, computer readable compliance database is maintained. The compliance database includes an exclusion list of grant requestors that have been excluded from receiving a grant. The grant management application determines an exclusion status for the grant requestor by comparing the registration information to the exclusion list. The grant requestor is informed of its exclusion status via the web-based portal. If the grant requestor's exclusion status is satisfactory, then the web-based portal receives grant information pertaining to a grant sought. Based on the grant information and the registration information, a custom set of business rules is derived to automatically manage the receipt, review, tracking, reconciliation and analysis of the grant sought.
