Grant-Funded Collaboration Modernization Services

Connect. Integrate. Collaborate.

CollabNow helps healthcare providers, educational institutions, and government organizations plan, design, implement, and sustain collaboration environments funded through federal and state grant programs, including USDA Distance Learning and Telemedicine (DLT).

What We Do

Grant-funded collaboration environments support modernization of the workplace by enabling telehealth, distance learning, continuing medical education (CME), workforce training, and operational coordination—helping organizations expand access to services, improve efficiency, and enhance service delivery.

We support organizations across the full grant lifecycle—bridging operational needs, technical requirements, and execution. Our approach aligns with proven grant support methodologies used by grant-focused organizations such as ConnorC3i and LearnDesignApply: strong pre-planning, clear technical alignment, realistic implementation, and sustainability.

GET STARTED

CollabNow is pleased to offer a wide array of free grant services. Our team will connect you to
resources specifically to meet the needs of your organization. Our network of experts are here to
help you through the grant process—from grant identification and application to post-award
administrative support.

The Process:

General Education

An introduction to alternative funding.

Research

Developing an understanding of each specific organization and then researching and creating a customized strategy.

Notification

Our consultants closely monitor granting agencies and provide Grant Alerts when “grants of interest” are released.

Grant Education

The team will provide grant summaries, eliminating your need to wade through hundreds of pages of grant guidelines. We regularly host webinars and provide other informational opportunities to educate you about grants as they are released. We may be available to provide free grant workshops—ask about sponsoring a program with your agency and community partners today.

Pre-Qualification

Our expert consultants specialize in taking you through a pre-qualification process, helping to ensure the “grant of interest” is a good fit for your organization. If we find you’re not likely to be competitive for a specific grant, we’ll help you find another funding source that’s a better fit!

Grant Writing Support

Our network of consultants and grant-writing experts across the country specialize in meeting your specific needs. Where allowed by the agency, services can include writing assistance, editing support, budget development and budget narrative recommendations to support your technology solutions.

Post-Award Support

Perhaps the most intimidating part of the grant process occurs after you’ve received an award. Many organizations find the process of reimbursement, audit and other required paperwork a bit daunting. Our consultants are happy to provide support, ensuring you’re in compliance and helping to move your project forward in a timely manner.
