Coming Soon: SFS Grants Management!
Starting in the new year, New York State will be transitioning from Grants Gateway to the Statewide Financial System (SFS) to support aspects of the grants management business process. This may include creating and submitting prequalification applications, searching for bid opportunities, responding to bids, approving grant contracts, submitting claims, etc.
This transition is based on successes to date and sets the stage for expanded grant making activities. Many improvements are envisioned, including paperless registration and an enhanced prequalification interface.
More information will be provided related to the transition for specific Department of State programs.

In anticipation of the new system, SFS is offering trainings to grantees in December. If you are able to attend any of these trainings, it will make the transition easier.

The SFS vision is to continually expand the capabilities of New York State agencies by connecting agency business needs with integrated financial solutions. As New York State government’s accounting and financial management system, SFS supports the work of:
- New York State agencies
- Control agencies, including the Division of the Budget and the Office of the State Comptroller
- The State Legislature
- Vendors doing business with New York State
- The general public
This modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) system was built to enable the State of New York to perform its fiscal and business management tasks more effectively, transparently, and efficiently than ever before with a single, enterprise-wide accounting and financial management system that serves a broad base of stakeholders.
