FEMA's Public Assistance (PA) Grants Manager database, including the Grant Portal tool (collectively Grants Manager) was developed in 2016 and became the processing system for all new PA grants starting on August  25, 2017. Grants Manager documents PA projects from formulation to grant obligation and finally close-out. Grant formulation is a new process that was not previously captured.

This data set now also includes data migrated from the previous databases, the Emergency Management Mission Integration Environment (EMMIE) and the National Emergency Management Information System (NEMIS). 

The 'Public Assistance Applicants Program Deliveries' dataset was generated from Grants Manager by the PA reporting team to share data on assistance made available to eligible state, local and tribal governments, and certain private nonprofit organizations as part of presidentially declared disasters. This dataset reports on the PA National Delivery Model process with summaries of projects and project statuses for all active applicants (subrecipients). The data reflects time sensitive, current phase information including pre-obligation (project formulation) phases starting in phase 2 through obligation in phase 5.

Short description of the PA Phases: 
Phase 1. Applicant Coordination and Evaluation - Identify applicants' disaster impacts and recovery priorities.
Phase 2. Impacts and Eligibility - Capture and document all incident-related damages.
Phase 3. Scoping and Costing - Further develop PA grant projects for final processing.
Phase 4. Final Reviews - FEMA reviews the project application, applicants review and sign agreement.
Phase 5. Obligation and Recovery Transition - FEMA obligates funds to recipients and schedules Recovery Transition Meeting (RTM).
Phase 6. Post-Award Monitoring and Amendments - Applicant provide updates to FEMA via Recipient, amendments can be submitted for changes to the scope, costs, or time to complete the project.
Phase 7. Final Reconciliation and Closeout - Applicant coordinates with recipient for closeout completed with FEMA.
