What Are Grant Systems?

Grant systems are better defined in categories of utilization. There are three different classifications, and only one of which has subdivisions. The first subcategory is defined as a Financial ERP or a Grant Accounting Module. This type of system is mainly used to manage, track, and report on grant expenditures within the context of the larger financials of an institution.

The second subcategory covers Grantor systems. A grantor system is more specifically used by the sponsor of a grant. While this system reduces manual operational management, it supports the end-to-end grants lifecycle from reviewing applications to monitoring awards from the Grantor perspective.

The third subcategory is the Grantee system which is designed for the recipient of a grant. There are two large subdivisions of a Grantee system: Research and Non-Research. The non-research grantee systems are used for grants of a non-research quality (equipment, operating, consultancy, etc.) but otherwise act in the same fashion as a research grantee system. The research systems can be subsequently further subdivided:

• Compliance systems
• Facilities research systems
• Funding opportunity systems
• Sponsored project management systems
• Technology transfer systems

Our grant report, which is available for purchase, provides a complete description of each subdivision of the third subcategory.

How Does ListEdTech Gather its Data?

We scan publicly available data (news releases, social media, university and company websites) to gather our information. Our dataset includes (but is not limited to): 

• Educational companies, products, and institutional characteristics, 
• Primary and secondary systems supported by an institution, 
• Implementation dates and decommission dates, 
• Contracts, RFP and acquisition data.

Our team controls for bias and regularly updates, reviews, and validates the data at the source to help organize, sort, and classify more than 3 million data points. Though we cannot guarantee an accurate market representation, the methods we use prevent the overrepresentation of any solution.  

As part of our data quality control, we review our database monthly. During these processes, we constantly reach a 95% accuracy rate.
