No one person can be expected to evaluate a request for proposals (RFP), write and revise a grant narrative, and catch all the mistakes. That’s where eCivis’ peer-review services can help. Composed of the nation’s top grant writers, our team will conduct a thorough review of your grant application from the perspective of a program officer or funding decision maker.
Our peer-review team has several decades of experience writing proposals for both nonprofits and local governments, and will ensure that your grant application:
• Addresses funding priorities and preferences for scoring bonus points.
• Adheres to all formatting requirements.
• Fulfills all submission-ready requirements and is ready to move to the next level of funder scrutiny.
• Includes relevant research citations and their dates and sources.
• Presents and positions information in an effective manner.
• Follows the formula for an award-winning program design.
The peer-review team will also:
• Examine your management plan for key personnel expertise in the grant funding area.
• Review the evaluation criteria to determine whether your response fulfills government requirements.
• Compare the funder’s requirements for sustainability (the ability to operate the grant-funded program or project when grant funding has ended).
• Apply tracking feedback on all weak areas of the grant application, indicating the number of points likely to be deducted by the federal grant reviewers.
• Our peer-review team is dedicated to evaluating your draft proposal to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the application, so you can be confident that your organization is poised to win funding.
