The aBi Grant Management System (GMS) is an end-to-end system that allows an agribusiness or implementing partner to submit a concept note, apply for a grant and ultimately then manage their aBi project using Financial and M&E tools within the GMS. The system is also used as a single data and document repository point to be accessed by both the grantees and aBi staff, for all project documentation.
