The initiative, led by the Idaho State Controller’s Office, created a connected grant management environment that improves financial oversight, strengthens compliance, and significantly accelerates reimbursement payments to agencies and community partners. By integrating grant administration workflows directly with Idaho’s ERP system, agencies now benefit from centralized documentation, real-time budget visibility, and faster financial processing.

Across the U.S., state agencies manage billions of dollars in federal and state grant funding each year, supporting programs from public health and infrastructure to victim services and community development. Yet many agencies still rely on spreadsheets, email workflows, and disconnected systems to administer grants – Idaho was experiencing many of these challenges. These manual processes made it difficult to track funding in real time, maintain consistent documentation, and process reimbursements quickly. It creates an administrative burden for agencies and financial uncertainty for nonprofit organizations and local partners who rely on grants to deliver essential services.

“Before this project, every agency had its own way of managing grants—different tools, different processes, a lot of spreadsheets, and email,” said Amy Edmondson, Project Manager at the Idaho State Controller’s Office. “By implementing Euna Grants and integrating it with our ERP, we were able to bring those processes together into a consistent statewide framework. Now agencies can see budgets and payments instantly, and the work is faster, more accurate, and much easier to manage.”

The need for modernization became more urgent when Idaho launched its new ERP platform. While the ERP strengthened financial management capabilities, state agencies still required a dedicated grant management solution that could integrate with the ERP while supporting day-to-day grant administration.

Implementation followed a structured two-phase strategy: First, Euna Grants standardized grant application, reimbursement, documentation, and reporting processes across participating agencies; second, grant management data now flows directly into the ERP, eliminating duplicate data entry and enabling faster, more reliable financial processing.

A Scalable Framework for Statewide Grant Management

Article content

In addition to improving day-to-day operations, Idaho has established a repeatable integration model that allows additional agencies to adopt the system using standardized processes and shared best practices. Agencies continue refining the approach through ongoing collaboration, knowledge sharing, and structured testing processes.

“When public sector leadership and modern technology align around a shared goal, the impact can be transformative,” said Brian Haney, Chief Customer Officer at Euna Solutions. “In Idaho, we worked closely with agency teams to implement Euna Grants and integrate it with the state’s ERP system. Just as important, the state has built a repeatable model that other agencies can adopt using shared standards, testing processes, and lessons learned. That approach is helping Idaho scale modern grant management statewide while continuing to improve how funds move to the programs communities rely on.”
