No more describing grant readiness and concerns over potential red flags in an organization using only our “grant writer intuition” (side note: grant writer intuition is a very real and still very important part of our work – trust your professional gut!) or saying “trust me, I’ve seen this before.” We now have a metric to share with our employer, with our clients, with our grant teams, with our Board of Directors as a discussion item for areas of strength in our grant seeking strategy, but also, areas for improvement.
