About This Automation

Grant evidence arrives constantly via email and forms, but staff must manually identify which grant and requirement each document addresses, search for duplicates, rename files, and update tracking spreadsheets. This repetitive work consumes hours weekly and creates compliance gaps.

Automation reads incoming documents, classifies them by grant and requirement, eliminates duplicates, files them correctly, and maintains a real-time evidence tracker. Staff focus on review and funder communication instead of manual filing.

Key features
Classify incoming documents automatically by grant and compliance requirement
Detect and flag duplicate or related documents before filing
Rename and organize files according to a consistent naming standard
Maintain a real-time tracker of all evidence received and compliance gaps
Pre-compile evidence packages when funders request proof of compliance
Send automated reminders for missing documentation

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Document Arrivestrigger

Email attachment, form submission, or upload triggers the automation.

2. Extract and Index Document

Automation extracts text from the document, reads the email subject and body, and identifies the grant and requirement using AI classification.

3. Check for Duplicates

Automation searches the central repository for similar documents using filename, date, and content matching.

4. Store in Central Repository

Document is automatically saved with a standardized name and folder path based on grant and requirement.

5. Log to Tracking Database

Automation creates or updates a record with document metadata, grant, requirement, date received, and status.

6. Flag Missing Evidence

Automation compares logged documents against the grant requirements checklist and identifies gaps.

7. Notify Team of Gaps

Automation sends a message to the Grants Manager with a list of missing evidence and upcoming deadlines.

8. Prepare Funder Package

When a funder request arrives, automation compiles all relevant documents into a folder and sends a summary to the Grants Manager for final review.
