Before final approval
Review the proposal as evidence, commitments, and a complete package
Good review is more than proofreading. It checks whether every instruction is answered, claims are supported, the program and budget agree, risks are visible, and authorized people approve the final version.
Review against requirements
Use the compliance map and official notice to check questions, criteria, formats, limits, forms, attachments, certifications, budget rules, portal fields, and the authoritative deadline.
Review claims and consistency
Confirm organizational facts, community evidence, citations, activities, outcomes, evaluation, partners, timeline, staffing, and budget assumptions are accurate, current, authorized, and mutually consistent.
Approve the exact version
Resolve comments, record remaining risks, identify the final package, obtain the required approvals, preserve the evidence, and keep the final submission action with an authorized person.
