Assess and Decide

Making decisions can be hard, so we've done all we can to make sure when it comes time to assess, you've got everything you need to make the right decision.

  • The tax status automatic check includes auto population of related fields for legal name, unique identifier, and tax status (in Australia, SmartyGrants interfaces with the Australian Business Register and in New Zealand, we interface with Charities Services and Business.govt.nz. We are able to extend this feature to other national tax agents as required.)
  • Includes date and time stamp supporting all time zones, which can serve as an audit trail demonstration for completion of due diligence step(s), and allow applicants to view dates and times relevant to the instance they are applying to
  • Conduct online application reviews/assessments by multiple internal and/or external assessors
  • Control which applications can be seen by which assessors
  • Move applications between the various stages in your grants lifecycle, in bulk
