Grants Portal is an online system that FEMA, Recipient, and Applicant use to process Public Assistance projects. Grants Portal's capabilities include, but are not limited to:

• Storing Applicant documentation
• Communicating and coordinating between FEMA, Recipient, and Applicant
• Providing the status of the Applicant's project
• Storing the Damage Inventory
• Storing and approving the scope of work and cost estimate

Applicants upload all documentation related to a project to Grants Portal, including steady-state documentation and project-specific documentation.

• If an Applicant does not have access to Grants Portal, they may have either the Recipient or Program Delivery Manager upload the documentation for them
