Why Excel Is No Longer Sustainable for Government Grants Management

2020 drove home the need for grant modernization in a new and urgent way. As governments learned, managing grants through spreadsheets, legacy systems, and paper-based processes was implausible with the pandemic forcing many agencies to move their workforces online. As future emergencies arise that stress the system, managing grants through these paper-based processes is no longer sustainable, leading to more human error, single audit findings, and costs down the road.
