  • Determine the appropriate level of funding necessary to achieve the grant outcomes defined by the program team.
  • Assess organizational capacity and growth constraints.
  • Assess financial sustainability of the grantee organization and the project outcomes
  • Analyze and mitigate risks to attaining grant outcomes.
