The eSeaGrant Platform
One system for the grant lifecycle.
eSeaGrant connects the work that happens before, during and after an award — so competitions, proposals, reviews, projects, people, documents and reporting remain part of one continuous program record.

The information should move forward with the work.
A proposal contains information that remains useful after selection. An award becomes a project. A project produces reports, outcomes and history.
eSeaGrant is designed around that continuity rather than treating each stage as an isolated transaction.
Capture information as part of the work, then keep it connected throughout the lifecycle.
01 / Competitions & Proposals
Start with the way your program funds work.
Configure opportunities around the competition itself — from letters of intent and preproposals to full proposals and program-specific requirements.
02 / Review & Selection
Give reviewers the information they need — and the process your program requires.
Bring reviewer assignments, proposal access, review criteria and structured evaluation into the same environment as the competition.
03 / Awards
Move selected work forward without starting over.
When a proposal is funded, the information already collected can become part of the award and project record instead of being rebuilt in another disconnected system.
04 / Project Management
Keep the funded work connected to its history.
Manage project information, people, documents and ongoing activity while preserving the relationship back to the original competition and proposal.
05 / Reporting
Reporting becomes part of the project, not a separate afterthought.
Collect progress and final reporting within the same environment that already understands the project, its people and its history.
06 / Program Knowledge
The value grows as the history grows.
When competitions, proposals, projects, people and reporting live in a connected environment, eSeaGrant can preserve institutional knowledge that would otherwise remain fragmented across files, spreadsheets and individual systems.
