1. A method for managing grants, comprising:
- at least one instance of a grant management application, wherein the at least one instance of the grant management application comprises;
receiving at least two of fiscal data associated with at least one grant, human resource data associated with the at least one grant, and program data associated with the at least one grant;
comparing at least one of the fiscal data, the human resource data, and the program data to at least one goal of the at least one grant;
determining performance associated with the at least one goal; and
reporting the performance.

Abstract
A system and method for managing grants is provided. A method includes multiple entities associated with a grant, each having an instance of a grant management application. Each instance of the grant management application includes the capability to receive disparate fiscal, human resource, and program data associated with the grant, and to compare the combined data to a goal of the grant to determine the entity'"'"'s performance to the goal. The combination of instances of the grant management application allows for a complete roll-up of individual entity'"'"'s performance into a total performance for the funder of the grant and according to the funder'"'"'s specifications.
