Grant Assistance
A vital component of any project is addressing funding needs. Exploring alternative funding through federal, state and regional programs can allow for project dreams to become reality.
Funding for Any Size Project
One of the most vitally important activities that our team undertakes is assisting clients with addressing project financing needs. Successful development of a well-balanced and achievable funding program requires top talent at every stage. Our team of professionals is well suited to assist our clients with a wide variety of funding programs. We have experience with a wide variety of standard and alternative funding sources. Throughout our disciplines, we work closely with our clients to pursue available funding for which they may be eligible including State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan Program, FASTLANE, TIGER, State Aid Grant (SAG) Program, and USDA/Rural Development Loan/Grant as well as many other funding programs.
In addition, we maintain a thorough understanding of the FAA Airport Improvement Program process and requirements as the majority of our aviation clients receive project funding through this and state aviation grant programs. A keen understanding of the funding cycles and mechanisms of both federal and state agencies is needed to maximize the project funding opportunities available to our clients. We have planned and programmed hundreds of projects with both federal and state level support. The relationships and program understanding we have developed assists us in keeping projects moving through the funding cycle.
