Our Services
Programmatic Strategy and Design
Setting Direction
Federal opportunities often move quickly — and organizations are most successful when program design is already in place. GLC supports organizations in developing fundable program strategies in advance of federal Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFOs), informed by federal priorities, agency signals, and organizational positioning.
We work with teams to establish clear program frameworks — including theory of change, goals, objectives, indicators, staffing needs, and implementation pathways — so programs can be adapted quickly as opportunities emerge. While aligned with federal NOFO expectations, these frameworks are intentionally designed to support state, foundation, and other funding pursuits.
Operational Performance
Building Systems that Grow with You
Every organization can develop the internal capacity to manage federal funding — the key is having systems that evolve alongside your mission. GLC supports organizations in assessing current capacity, strengthening the systems that matter most, and reassessing performance over time to ensure those systems are effective, sustainable, and aligned with program goals.
Through a collaborative, strengths-based approach, we help teams build practical policies, internal controls, and workflows that meet federal requirements and reflect best practices for strong organizational management.
Whether an organization is actively pursuing federal grants or preparing for future growth, these systems support efficiency, transparency, and accountability — while clearly demonstrating how operations contribute to mission delivery and program outcomes.
Grant Research and Pursuit
From Readiness to Submission
Informed by a clear programmatic strategy and grounded in organizational capacity — whether established or actively being built — GLC supports organizations in researching and pursuing funding opportunities that align with their goals. This ensures grant pursuits are intentional, competitive, and feasible, rather than reactive.
We provide targeted opportunity identification, interpretation, and proposal development.
Grant Management & Compliance
Managing Awards with Confidence
Federal awards introduce long-term responsibilities that extend well beyond submission. GLC partners with organizations throughout the full grant lifecycle — from award review and proposal-to-implementation handoff to reporting, monitoring, and ongoing compliance.
Our support helps teams manage requirements confidently, respond to challenges proactively, and maintain funder trust. These practices not only protect federal funding, but also strengthen internal management, accountability, and cross-team coordination across the organization.
Subrecipient Stewardship
Strengthening Funded Partnerships
Federal pass-through funding adds complexity — and opportunity. GLC helps prime recipients design and implement subrecipient systems that meet federal requirements while supporting strong, effective partnerships.
We support right-sized oversight, capacity assessment, and collaborative monitoring approaches that reduce risk and improve performance. While rooted in federal compliance expectations, this work strengthens partner relationships, delivery systems, and program outcomes across funding environments.
