REI Systems GovGrants® Expands Reach into the Education Grants Market Winning $4M Contract with the New York State Education Department

STERLING, Va., Oct. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- REI Systems, a technology service provider with 35 years of delivering reliable, effective, and innovative solutions that advance government missions, announced today it will implement GovGrants®, its full-lifecycle grants management product, for the New York State Education Department (NYSED). This $4M contract is REI's fifth win in the state education grants market, joining Washington, Utah, California, and Louisiana.

The NYSED oversees and administers state and federal funding programs to support educational initiatives, improve student outcomes, and foster innovation in schools and educational institutions. It sought to modernize its grants management processes with a cloud-hosted, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) product that supports many complex financial aspects of disbursing and tracking grant funds.

REI's GovGrants® provides the NYSED with a low-code, configuration-driven, productized solution, offering a budget-friendly alternative to conventional custom software development. It offers a highly intuitive user interface accessible from any device, providing an excellent user experience. Key to New York's selection of REI was GovGrants' native integration with enterprise financial systems, allowing seamless management and tracking of grant disbursements.

"We are thrilled to partner with the New York Education Department to implement GovGrants - our cutting-edge grants management system. This partnership underscores our commitment to enhancing efficiency and transparency in the allocation of educational funds, ultimately supporting the success and growth of students, educators, and school districts across New York," stated Wagish Bhartiya, Chief Growth Officer at REI Systems.

NYSED is GovGrants®' fifth customer in the education sector, joining the State of Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Utah State Board of Education, the California Department of Education, and the Louisiana Community and Technical College System, which together represent over $12 billion in grant funding management.
