Our Approach
Federal and other government grants come with complex responsibilities. Cost allowability. Financial reporting. Procurement compliance. Drawdowns. Single audits.
At GrantWin, we don't just advise.
We assess, design, and implement.
How GrantWin Supports You
Many organizations manage federal awards the way they manage everything else: spreadsheets, software, institutional memory, and hope. Hope isn’t a strategy, and overreliance on software isn’t compliance.

Our team includes specialists who have managed over 1,400 subrecipients and conducted monitoring visits of pass-through entities, and another specialist who devised processes for a global organization.

Have Questions?
Explore Our FAQs
What does the Grant Management service include?
GrantWin’s Grant Management service includes:
- Ensuring compliance with grant terms and conditions.
- Assessing your financial management system and making necessary enhancements.
- Please contact us for additional service details.
NOTE: Subrecipient management and monitoring services (if applicable) will incur an additional fee.
Do you just provide recommendations and guidance, or do you actually help implement them?
We provide both. Unlike traditional consultants who deliver a report and exit, GrantWin stays to support and/or implement the solutions we design. We don't consider an engagement complete until your systems are functional, your team is trained, and your compliance posture is strengthened.
How is this different from hiring a compliance officer?
A compliance officer is one person. GrantWin is a team with 80+ years of collective experience across 20+ federal agencies. We provide depth and breadth no single hire can match—without the overhead of a full-time salary and benefits.
What if we already have grant management software?
Software doesn't guarantee compliance. Processes do. We work within your existing technology stack to build workflows, controls, and documentation systems that make your tools actually work for compliance—not just tracking.
Can you help us with just one compliance area, like procurement or drawdowns?
Absolutely. While many organizations engage us for comprehensive system assessments, we also provide targeted engagements focused on specific compliance domains. Tell us where you're struggling, and we'll meet you there.
What are your grant compliance professionals’ credentials and experience?
The grant management team is comprised of grant professionals with over 80 years of combined experience as federal grant management and compliance experts.
We managed grants for our clients from over 20 federal, state, and local government agencies.
The team also includes two Certified Grant Management Specialists, an internal auditor, a Certified Public Accountant with federal grant accounting and single audit experience, and a grant accountant with experience as an internal auditor.
What are the fees for the firm’s services?
Please schedule a meeting with our team so we can learn about your needs and provide a fee.
How long can we engage the GrantWin team?
Our team is ready and positioned to provide grant management and other services for the duration of your grant(s). We recommend a minimum engagement of three (3) months.
