What is Grant Compliance?

A Solution for post-award grant compliance. The Grant Compliance Agent checks spending and reporting against each award, and 2 CFR 200 procurement rules apply when the Spend module is on.

How much does Grant Compliance cost?

$100 a month list price, or $1,000 a year, on top of a Muin plan. A second Solution costs less; see the [pricing page](/pricing).

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Starting its trial starts a 30-day plan trial with Grant Compliance on top.

What does the Grant Compliance Agent check?

Every day it compares spending on each grant with the award's period and budget categories. It flags a category that has gone over, spending that is running ahead or behind, a report that is coming due or late, and a period ending with a large amount unspent.

How does the agent know what we spent?

It reads the spending posted to the grant's fund in your Muin books, along with the award, its period, its budget categories and its report due date.

Can it find money we can still claim?

Yes. It points out open bills that qualify to be charged to the award and indirect cost you can claim, each with the ledger lines behind it.

Does it help write proposals?

Yes. The proposal assistant asks only what it cannot find in your records, then the Proposal Drafter writes each section and cites the source of every figure. You can also upload an application you wrote and have it reviewed against the grant before you send it.

Does Muin submit applications or reports for us?

No. Muin drafts, tracks and checks. You review and send everything yourself.

Does it cover federal procurement rules?

Yes, with the Spend module. Purchase orders paid with federal or pass-through award money are checked against the 2 CFR 200 procurement rules, and the record your auditor samples is kept with each order.

Does it cover facility audits or vendor insurance?

No. Facility audits, use caps and inspections are in Facility Management. Vendor insurance, W-9 and licence collection is in Vendor Compliance.

We only need to find grants. Is there something smaller?

Yes. Grant Management is free for a few saved grants, with an unlimited tier. See the [Grant Management page](/products/grant-management).
