Description

The Submit Grant Application models illustrate the grants application submission processes used to apply for a grant. The models are organized into three states: 

·      As-Is: The models in this section are current state business processes.

·      To-Be: The models in this section are the desired future state business processes.

·      Transition Plan: The models in this section specify the business processes necessary to transition from current state to future state.


Each section contains a WHAT model and a HOW model. The WHAT model lists the business activities that must occur in order for the NIH to manage a funded grant during its noncompeting years. The WHAT model is presented in a hierarchical format in which the children support the parent activities. The HOW model integrates all dimensions (What, Which, Who, Where, When) into a single comprehensive model that captures the sequence of the activities, the dependencies between the activities, and the flow of information from one activity to another.
