Under rare circumstances, grantees may be selected without competition on the basis of their unique qualifications. This selection process is called a sole source and requires that SPI justify why open solicitation was not engaged to identify other potential grantees to provide the services needed. Awards must follow the appropriate schedule of authority. In general a competitive process will be used to select grantees. The competitive selection processes generally will rely on requests for applications (RFA) or requests for proposals (RFP) circulated in any number of ways. When RFA's and RFP's are employed, announcements should provide the following key information: - SPI'S program objectives, including areas of special interest - Minimum eligibility requirements for grantees - Criteria for evaluating applications - Funds available, period of performance, and the number of awards anticipated - Types of activities and costs that will not be funded - Required or suggested elements for cost-sharing - Required format and deadline for submitting applications - How interested parties may obtain application materials Due Diligence: Due diligence shall be conducted for the most competitive applicant. At a minimum, this process will include the review of all submitted application materials, including budgets. Before final selection is made, SPI shall explore the organization's overall financial strength and capacity, including track record (if applicable), governance and executive leadership, vision and strategy, staffing partnerships, communications and finances to ensure competency of grantee. Grant award: Once grantee is selected, the grantee and SPI shall determine best method for payment of grant award. Payment may be completed in one lump sum, broken down in partial payments or paid out only after the project is completed. Further, both grantee and SPI shall discuss if payment is to be made by electronic transfer, check or by other means. Grant management: To ensure success, SPI shall provide a post award orientation to grantee to clarify the roles, responsibilities and authorities of who will administer the award and to help grantee understand all needed technical and administrative information. In an effort to ensure success, SPI has the right to manage the grantee by conducting site visits, requesting program or financial audits, and/or periodic grant reports.
