I will handle all the administrative tasks involved in preparing your proposal, guiding you through the complexities of federal funding opportunities. I will review the requirements and create a checklist of all necessary documents, forms, and registrations needed for submission. I can help you understand eligibility criteria and ensure all prerequisites are met for a successful application. Once everything is prepared, I will compile and finalize your application in the sponsor's portal, such as grants.gov or research.gov, so you don’t have to navigate these systems on your own. I also provide support in completing essential forms, preparing proposal documents, and collecting materials from collaborators, making the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Also, as part of the proposal development process, I will collaborate with you to create a detailed budget that meets the needs of your proposed project while adhering to sponsor and federal regulations. This involves carefully assessing project costs, including personnel, equipment, travel, and other expenses, to ensure all aspects of your project are accurately represented and justified. I will guide you through the allowable costs and budgetary constraints set by the funding agency, helping you optimize your budget to maximize funding potential. Additionally, I provide support in drafting budget justifications and narratives, ensuring clarity and compliance with sponsor guidelines. Together, we will develop a budget that strengthens your proposal and enhances its chances of success.

Navigating the necessary registrations for federal funding can be a complex task, especially for those new to government grants. Let me take the hassle off your plate by guiding you through the entire registration process, including registering with the System for Award Management (SAM), and setting up accounts on platforms like grants.gov or eRA Commons. I will ensure all registrations are accurately completed and up to date, which is crucial for submitting a successful application. My support will help you avoid common pitfalls and delays, allowing you to focus on developing a strong proposal.

Having a second set of eyes to review your proposal can be the difference between a good proposal and an excellent one. Let me meticulously review your proposal documents to ensure that the language is clear, concise, and impactful, and that punctuation and grammar are flawless. I will provide detailed feedback to enhance the overall readability and persuasiveness of your proposal, ensuring it aligns with the expectations of the reviewers. My review process includes checking for consistency in formatting, adherence to sponsor guidelines, and ensuring that your key messages are effectively communicated. With my expertise, your proposal will make a strong, positive impression on potential reviewers, increasing your chances of success.

At times, it can be challenging to dedicate time to search for funding. I can assist in searching for potential funding opportunities, which you can then review to ascertain their alignment with your company's scientific focus.
