eRA Achievements
eRA brings more than 37 years of experience of implementing complex business processes related to grants administration. The eRA system comprises an end-to-end electronic grants management flow, from the receipt and review process, through award and post-award management to eventual closeout. eRA’s ability to provide critical systems that manage and deliver grants is a core element of the partnerships that eRA has developed with private institutions, state governments, academic institutions and individuals. eRA has successfully aligned its systems with that of Grants.gov, enabling the flow of electronic applications from the applicant to Grants.gov to NIH or federal agencies using eRA.
