You’re in good company

Manage the entire grant lifecycle

Application

Publish rounds and collect applications

Easily set up your organisation’s funding objectives, build online application forms and develop approval processes with streamlined grant assessment workflows. Your branded client portal/funding hub lets you manage round open and close dates, publish documents, update guidelines, and offer new grant opportunities.

Application

Build online application forms just the way you need them

Create and publish online grant application forms that specifically fit your grant program. Pre-screen applicants with public eligibility criteria and declaration checks to eliminate the influx of low-quality applications. Launch new rounds faster with templated e-forms that can quickly be reconfigured to your requirements.

Take complete control of your funding rounds and external engagements

Target audiences with public/private and competitive/non-competitive rounds, in your branded client portal/funding hub, an accessible gateway for applicants to discover grant opportunities. Request amendments to send applicants instant notifications, taking them directly to the field where you requested more information, so you can assess applications faster.

User-centric design that drives better applications

Streamline the application process with intuitive navigation, data lookup and validation, and auto-filling data for returning users. Applications can be downloaded, saved, and returned to, and files can be attached in a range of formats, giving your applicants the ability to provide the most detailed responses possible.

Assess Grant

Assess grants and notify applicants

The grant fund assessment stage can be the busiest time for grant providers and their reviewing teams. Our platform makes complex assessment processes simple and efficient with configurable workflows. The grants management dashboard makes it easy to track overall progress, and export eligibility information, total scores, assessment outcomes, recommendations, and approved funding data.

Assess Grant

Surface conflicts of interest before scoring starts

Reviewers can declare a conflict of interest with an applicant, co-investigator, or institution as soon as they see the assignment, allowing you to reassign to another panel member straight away, before it becomes a problem after the fact.

Score against the criteria your funder actually uses

Build rubrics that mirror funder-specific assessment criteria, so panel scores are comparable across reviewers and defensible if a decision is ever challenged.

Expedite your workflow through bulk recommendations and approvals

Speed up administration with one-click bulk approvals on application assessments. The grant management platform allows you to assign roles to team members, and external assessors who can seamlessly submit their recommendations using the client portal.

Award Grant narrow

Award funding and establish milestones

When it’s time to execute and deliver grant funding, your team needs a system that works efficiently. Our platform makes it easy to execute grant contracts, manage variations and track the status of all agreements. You can generate and share Word or pdf contracts, letters of offer, and other official documentation directly from the platform throughout the grant lifecycle.

Award Grant narrow

Capture file notes on contacts, accounts, and grant agreements

Maintain relationship information, notes and updates on contacts, accounts and grant agreements for team members. Teams stay organised and work efficiently with grant portfolio data and external correspondence stored in one centralised location.

Total visibility of approval and contract status

Improve grant contract lifecycle management with reporting features to track and view contract milestone progress along with workflows to maintain visibility throughout your programs. Easily manage and progress multiple contracts, timeframes, approvals, and renewals simultaneously.

Generate contracts, letters and documents with one-click features

Streamline contract management with our templates, letters, and document generation solutions. With the ability to create your own templates, you can ensure organisational standards are maintained and benefit from configurable data options.

Pay grant

Process payments and track outcomes

Staying on top of financials and milestones is crucial to reducing risks and making sound funding decisions. Our Grant Management software offers complete visibility over payment and contract milestones, while providing unparalleled control of funding allocations, budgets, and payment forecasts. Grant managers can proactively manage and organise delivery based on milestones, agreements, organisations, due dates, or status making it easy to report financial data to stakeholders.

Pay grant

Gain control by creating consistent contract schedules

Create grant contract schedules once and apply them as needed to standardise contract management. Reduce risk and administrative costs while delivering predictability for all contracted parties.

Obtain a clear view of payments across all grant agreements

Release funds in full or in part as milestones are met, with purchase orders linked to every payment. See what's committed, paid and outstanding across every grant agreement, with up-to-date payment information in one place. 

Never miss a date or funding opportunity with automated alerts and notifications

Automatically generate alerts for key dates from grant contract schedules, to support reporting, payments, and other contractual milestones. Set up notifications for all stakeholders engaged in the grant lifecycle to ensure tasks are completed on or ahead of schedule.

Grant Acquittal report

Acquit projects and demonstrate your impact

Show your full impact and achieve greater outcomes by having a clear understanding of grant relationships, operations, financials, and results. Grant recipients can submit client reports against their milestones through the client portal and provide feedback on their performance, outputs, outcomes, and financials.

Grant Acquittal report

Demonstrate your success by reporting results, indicators, and outcomes

Collect a range of data using client reports with configurable reporting indicators throughout your programs. Approved client reporting data automatically reconciles with pre-existing data and is easy to access with all information contained within our system.

Aggregate your grant impact data to paint the big picture

Link your grant funding to tangible outcomes by tracking expenditure against reporting indicators. Then roll up these project reporting indicators to the program level to improve comparability and show stakeholders the full impact of your grant portfolio.

Get reports done in a single day

Simple one-click, automated reporting and enterprise search means grant managers can deliver up-to-date, accurate reporting with ease. Set reporting data for different audience needs and ensure that your organisation always delivers on schedule.

Why choose Tactiv over other grant management software?


Tactiv is a modern, Australian-made grant management platform designed for organisations that need to manage more than just grant applications.
 
Unlike basic grant administration tools, Tactiv supports the end-to-end funding lifecycle: from applications, assessment, and approvals through to agreements, payments, monitoring, reporting, and evaluation. It is particularly suited to organisations managing multiple programs, complex funding processes and increasingly sophisticated governance and reporting requirements.

Key reasons organisations choose Tactiv include

For organisations comparing grant management platforms, the key difference is breadth: Tactiv combines grant administration, program management, governance, and impact measurement in a single platform, making it particularly well-suited to organisations with complex or evolving funding programs.

Australian-made with local support

Tactiv is developed in Australia with support spread across Australia and New Zealand, giving Australian organisations access to a local team that understands the funding and program management environment. 

Built for complex grant programs

Manage multiple programs, funding streams, workflows, assessment processes, stakeholders and reporting requirements within one configurable platform.

End-to-end grant management

Manage the funding lifecycle beyond application and assessment, including agreements, milestones, payments, monitoring, acquittals and ongoing program management.

Outcomes and impact measurement

Go beyond tracking grants and activities to capture KPIs, outcomes and evidence of program impact across individual grants and broader funding portfolios.

Configurable to different programs

Configure forms, workflows, processes, permissions and reporting to support different programs without needing separate systems.

Works with your existing technology ecosystem

Tactiv can integrate with CRM, finance and other business systems, helping organisations create a connected funding management environment rather than replacing systems that already work.

Designed to grow with your organisation

Support individual funding programs through to larger portfolios involving multiple teams, programs and stakeholders.

Security, compliance and Australian data hosting

Tactiv hosts customer data in Australia and maintains ISO 27001 certification and CyberSmart certification, helping organisations manage sensitive funding and applicant information within a robust information security framework.

Get started fast, scale with confidence

Our platform grows with your programs, without the growing pains. From single grants to multi-year investment programs, we can handle complexity while keeping things easy for you.

Easily stand up grant programs with out-of-the-box repeatable workflows that can be configured to your specific requirements, building them with reporting outcomes in mind.

Scale to the complexity you need without significant customisation upfront, enabling you to run one-off funding rounds, or complex, multi-year programs with layered logic within the same intuitive platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Tactiv's grants management software designed for?

Tactiv's grant management software is designed for governments, foundations, not-for-profits, universities, and private organisations that manage and distribute funding. Whether you run a single program or oversee a complex portfolio, the comprehensive platform adapts to your needs.

Built around best-practice grant management and continually evolving with industry standards, it provides the flexibility and confidence to manage programs of any scale.

Can applicants and recipients access the system?

Yes. Applicants and recipients use a secure online portal to submit applications, sign contracts, track progress, and upload reports, all in one place. This simplifies communication, reduces back-and-forth emails, and ensures funding timelines and obligations are clear and transparent.

Can other stakeholders, like assessors, access the system?

Yes. Assessors, reviewers, and other stakeholders can securely log in through the same online portal. The platform provides dedicated permissions for each role, making it simple to review applications, provide feedback, approve submissions, and collaborate with program managers throughout the funding lifecycle.

What tools are available for grant managers and administrators within Tactiv's grant management software?

Tactv's grant management software gives program teams a complete view of their portfolio, helping them manage applications, approvals, contracts, payments, and reporting from a single dashboard. With automated workflows, customisable forms, and real-time tracking, grant managers can reduce administrative overhead, ensure compliance, and focus more on program impact.

Can Tactiv help us measure grant outcomes and impact?

Yes. Beyond financial tracking, Tactiv's grant management platform records outcomes such as project deliverables, community benefits, partnerships, and measurable impacts. This helps funders connect investments to real-world results and demonstrate accountability to stakeholders.

What is grant management software?

Grant management software is a system that manages every stage of a funding program in one place, from designing the program and taking applications through to assessment, payments, acquittal and reporting.

For most funders, the real value isn’t just less admin. It’s having all program information in one system instead of spread across spreadsheets and inboxes. That makes it easier to see where every application and payment stands, meet governance requirements and show what your funding has actually achieved.

What does grant management software help organisations manage?

Grant management software helps organisations manage the day-to-day work of running funding programs. That includes taking applications, coordinating assessment panels, issuing funding agreements, processing payments and tracking progress reports from recipients.

With everything in one system, teams spend less time chasing documents and updating records, and more time supporting applicants and making good funding decisions. With Tactiv’s grant management software, it also means reporting on program outcomes is far simpler, because the data is already there.

 

How does Tactiv keep grant and applicant data secure?

Tactiv is certified to ISO/IEC 27001, the international standard for information security, and all client data, including backups, is stored in Australian data centres.

Only people with a genuine need can access data, and every action in the platform is recorded, so there’s always a clear record of who did what. Security updates and annual penetration testing are included as standard. Tactiv also helps organisations meet their privacy obligations, with the ability to schedule sensitive records, like identity documents, for removal once they’re no longer needed.

Can Tactiv manage the entire grant lifecycle?

Yes. Tactiv manages every stage of the grant lifecycle, from application to acquittal, with a strong focus on impact reporting. Outcomes are set when the program is designed, so the right data is collected at each stage and reporting on results is straightforward.

Automated workflows handle routine steps like assessment and approvals, and Tactiv connects with the systems organisations already use, so teams aren’t entering the same information twice.

Can Tactiv manage multiple grant programs in one system?

Yes, Tactiv can manage multiple grant programs in one system. Whether you’re running a single grant round or a portfolio of multi-year initiatives, Tactiv’s purpose-built platform brings every program together in one place, giving your team a clear view of your entire funding portfolio.

Reusable templates mean you never have to build a program from scratch. Launch new rounds faster, keep processes consistent across programs and free your team to focus on what matters most.

Can we configure Tactiv to match our grant management processes?

Yes. Tactiv is highly configurable, with no coding required. Its core features are built around grant management best practice, and can be shaped to fit the way your organisation works, including your processes, terminology and approval steps.

That means you can set up application forms, assessment stages and workflows to suit each program, rather than changing how your team works to fit the software. As your programs evolve, your configuration can change with them.

How long does it take to implement grant management software?

Implementation times can vary depending on the complexity of your programs and the availability of your team for the initial setup. For simple grants, you could be up and running within 4-6 weeks, for more complex grants it can take longer. Ultimately, our team works with you, on your schedule to ensure that you get the best result when it comes to implementing your first grants program on Tactiv's platform.

How much does Tactiv grant management software cost?

For grants management Tactiv offers a range of pricing packages based on what functionality you need, along with the number of users that need to access the core platform. Our starting price is $1250 per month, with discounts available for not-for-profits. We do not charge additional fees for the number of people accessing the applicant portal to apply for grants.

Can we migrate our existing grant data into Tactiv’s platform?

Yes. Tactiv offers two migration options, so you can choose the approach that best suits your team’s capacity. You can run the migration yourselves with Tactiv’s support, or have Tactiv lead it for you. You can also choose whether to bring across active data only or your full history.

Both options follow a proven six-step process using our migration tool, with a full dress rehearsal before go-live and a final check to confirm everything has transferred correctly.
