Successful Strategies for Grants
General Guidance – Read criteria carefully Where have awards gone previously? Who is competing for same grant
opportunity?– within your agency?– within your jurisdiction?– within your region ?
Turn potential competitors into collaborators

Dos and Don’ts
Do Build Stakeholder Support Carefully
![Page 11: FUNDING SOURCES FOR STREAMLINING & I T Robert Wible Streamlining Project Manager The FIATECH Consortium Webinar for the FIATECH Jurisdictions Committee,](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070407/56649e175503460f94b038f0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Do - Build Stakeholder Support
Working with Stakeholders to develop & submit best possible grant application
Getting their input on meeting grant application criteria
Lessons learned from previous grant applications – both successful & unsuccessful
Putting your submission into language Federal agency understands– Why streamlining & /or IT is critical to successful– Disaster recovery/resiliency; environmental
quality, economic recovery, etc.,
![Page 12: FUNDING SOURCES FOR STREAMLINING & I T Robert Wible Streamlining Project Manager The FIATECH Consortium Webinar for the FIATECH Jurisdictions Committee,](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070407/56649e175503460f94b038f0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Don’ts
Don’t assume grant evaluation team knows anything about building regulatory process & it’s critical relevance to grant area (e.g. – environmental, disaster recovery, energy conservation)
Don’t assume grant will cover all of your needs
Don’t wait until grant is formally announced to identify competitors & collaborators & start building proposal stakeholder support
