Grant Writing and Funding Application Services

The municipal government authority in Dunchurch, ON seeks a vendor to provide grant writing and funding application services for a three-year contract period. The buyer requires the selected vendor to identify and monitor federal, provincial, foundation, and external funding programs, while assessing municipal projects for eligibility and grant readiness. Additionally, the vendor must develop work plans, draft application narratives and budgets, coordinate with municipal staff and external partners, and review submissions for compliance. The buyer also expects strategic advice on funding approaches, matching-fund requirements, and resubmission strategies to reduce staff administrative burdens and maximize external funding access. Eligibility limits participation to onshore Canadian vendors, and the work requires offsite performance. The buyer requests proposals for the budget and sets a deadline for all questions of September 25, 2026.
