At EMD, we offer a wide range of grant consulting services, however, the FEMA NSGP grant is the most popular by far. Visit the FEMA website for more information on this program.
There are a number of products and services these grant programs will allow applicants to spend money on. The FEMA Authorized Equipment List is a great example of items that are typically allowable. Please check your grant governing body to confirm what is allowed in your specific program.
We have experience working with clients in various industries, including healthcare, technology, finance, and non-profits.
Not all grants require the UEI number, however, the FEMA NSGP does. It's somewhat time consuming to get your UEI number, so get started now! If your organization was previously assigned a DUNS Number (Data Universal Numbering System), it has been replaced by a new UEI value. Login to sam.gov to check your new UEI.
