What Does Flexigrant Do for Research Organisations? 

Most grant management software was built for simple grant-making. One application form, one review panel, one award. Research grant management does not work like that. 

You need to run multi-stage peer review where different reviewers assess the same application at different points. You need to track indirect costs (the share of a grant budget that covers institutional running costs, separate from the direct cost of the research itself). You need payment schedules that release funding when specific milestones are hit. And you need reports that give funders hard evidence, not just a status update. 

Flexigrant is a management solution built for exactly that level of complexity. Your team gets full visibility across the whole grants portfolio in one real-time dashboard. Every workflow is configurable to match your institution's actual process. And every action in the grant process is logged, so your compliance record is always ready if a funder or auditor asks to see it.

CUSTOMISABLE APPLICATION FORMS

Tailored Forms for Efficient Research Grant Management

Research grant applications need different information depending on the funder, the funding type, and the research area. A one-size form does not work. Flexigrant lets you build a separate, configurable application form for each grant scheme. You set the fields, the structure, and the eligibility rules.

Principal investigators submit through a dedicated online portal. The data comes in consistently, your team is not chasing missing information, and your forms stay aligned with each funder's specific requirements. 

comm-function-1

Dynamic and adaptable forms

Create fully customisable application forms tailored to your specific research needs, with flexibility to adjust for different funding types and requirements. 

Seamless experience for both administrators and applicants

Ensure a smooth and intuitive application process that simplifies tasks for both administrators and applicants, improving efficiency and user satisfaction. 

Compliance with specific funding guidelines

Easily align your forms with specific funding rules and criteria, ensuring you collect all necessary data while maintaining full compliance. 

MULTI-STAGE REVIEW PROCESS

Structured, Fair, and Fully Documented for Grants

review-panels-v2

Peer review is the most complex part of research grant management. Multiple reviewers. Multiple stages. Scoring systems that need to be consistent. Conflict-of-interest rules (making sure reviewers do not assess applications they have a personal connection to) that need to be enforced.

Flexigrant handles all of it. You configure the stages, assign reviewers, set scoring criteria, and manage the whole review process inside the platform. Decisions are recorded with the reasoning behind them. Review panels work in one shared

ADVANCED REPORTING AND ANALYTICS

Show Funders the Evidence They Need

Funders do not just want to know that money was spent. They want to know what it achieved. Flexigrant gives you real-time tracking of project progress, funding allocation, and performance across your whole research portfolio.

You can build custom reports for different funders, pull live data rather than manually compiling it, and ensure transparency throughout the full project lifecycle. When a board meeting or a funder review is coming up, the data is already in the system and ready to go. 

FTL-product-analytics

Progress & funding allocation

Track the status of research projects and funding allocation in real time, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. 

Monitor key performance metrics

Monitor key performance metrics across research initiatives to evaluate impact and drive continuous improvement. 

Transparency reporting

Generate detailed reports that support transparency, accountability, and data-driven decision-making throughout the project lifecycle. 

FUNDING AND BUDGET MANAGEMENT

Streamline Budget Tracking and Payment Processes

 

Research grants often run for years. Budgets change. Costs shift between categories. Payment schedules need to match project milestones. Flexigrant gives you real-time budget management for every active grant award.

You track direct and indirect costs separately, process payments when milestones are reached, and adjust budgets when funding requirements change. Your finance team always works from current figures, and data protection controls make sure only the right people can access sensitive financial information.

COLLABORATIVE TOOLS

Streamline Team Coordination Across Research Grants 

Email integration for seamless updates

Enable smooth communication by integrating email updates, keeping everyone in the loop throughout the application process. 

Document sharing & collaboration

Facilitate efficient collaboration by sharing documents and enabling real-time teamwork among principal investigators, co-applicants, and finance officers. 

Task management

Easily manage tasks and track outstanding responsibilities, ensuring the team stays on top of deadlines and progress. 

INTEGRATION CAPABILITIES

Streamline Your Research Grants Process with Seamless Integrations 

data-management-tool

Research institutions often rely on multiple systems to manage their grant funding, payments, data reporting, and stakeholder relationships. Flexigrant’s APIs make those systems work together more effectively.

Teams can extract data from Flexigrant through API endpoints, which allows integration with other platforms, like CRM systems such as Salesforcem, or the finance systems for the automation of payment processing.

This helps research organisations reduce manual administration, improve data flow across institutional systems, and run grant management processes more efficiently.

FLEXIGRANT ADVANTAGE
Medical Research Charities

Deliver a seamless experience for Research Grants Software

Medical research charities run competitive grant programmes where the quality of the review process matters. Funders, the public, and the scientific community all expect decisions to be fair, well-documented, and defensible. Flexigrant gives your programme configurable multi-stage review, conflict-of-interest controls, and a clear audit trail for every decision. A growing number of AMRC members choose Flexigrant because it handles the complexity of research grant administration without needing a large technical team to run it. 

FLEXIGRANT ADVANTAGE
Research Funding Bodies

Deliver a seamless experience for Research Grants Software

Organisations that award research grants need the same rigour in their own grant process that they expect from the researchers they fund. Flexigrant gives funding bodies a complete management solution for the full grant lifecycle: publishing funding opportunities, running applications and peer review, making grant awards, and tracking outcomes. Every decision is logged. Every stage is documented.

Why Research Teams Choose Flexigrant Over Generic Grant Software?

Generic grant software handles simple processes well. Research grant management is not simple. You need multi-stage review with configurable scoring. You need indirect cost tracking. You need payment schedules tied to milestones. You need compliance reporting that satisfies research funders specifically. 

Flexigrant was built with that level of detail in mind. The workflows go as deep as your process requires. The review tools handle conflict-of-interest controls, multi-panel coordination, and scoring consistency. And the support team is UK-based, which means they know research grant administration and respond quickly when something needs fixing.
