Fiscal Year 2013 CapGrants

FIRST TIME LOGGING INTO CapGrants

There are several tasks that need to be complete before you can use the CapGrants portal. This page will describe each step. First, you must have a NYC.ID to start the process (see below).

NYC.ID
When you click on the button “Enter CapGrants Portal” at the bottom of this page, you will be prompted with a login screen (Exhibit 1 below). Click on the area identified below to create a new NYC.ID. You will be directed to a registration page for the creation of your NYC.ID (Exhibit 2). An email confirmation will be sent to verify the creation of your ID. Your email address will be your user id.

Once you have created your NYC.ID and received your email confirmation, you must return to the login page (Exhibit 1) to enter the City’s capital grant portal (CapGrants), through which you will upload and manage your request(s).

The first time you login into the CapGrants portal you will be prompted to fill in a registration form for the CapGrants portal.

Upon completion of the registration process, you will be brought to the Home page of the CapGrants portal (Exhibit 5). Helpful links, deadline reminders and other instructions will be posted on this page. Click on the “CapGrants Dashboard” button to continue.

CapGrants Submission Process
Here are some general guidelines about the process:

• You do not need to complete the submission of all Organization documents or
  Capital Request (project documents) in one sitting. You may start the process, upload
  certain documents, and come back later to complete. Upload only final documents
  (i.e., not drafts).

 

• Organization Documents

  • Before you can submit any Capital Request for specific projects (e.g., equipment
    system project or a vehicle project), you must first complete the submission of all Organization documents.

  • You only need to submit the Organization documents once per organization,
    regardless of the number of Capital Requests the organization is submitting.
    For example, if you are planning on submitting Capital Requests for a vehicle
    project and an equipment system project for the same organization, you would
    only submit the Organization documents once.




• Once the Organization documents have been completely submitted, the submitter of the Organization documents can submit a Capital Request for a specific project and/or can
  choose to allow others to submit one or more Capital Requests by clicking the “Add User”
  button on the CapGrants Dashboard and entering the new user’s NYC.ID.

  • Each individual submission can only be created and managed by one person.
    For example, if Submitter A submits the Organization documents and Submitter B
    submits a Capital Request, Submitter A cannot submit any documents or respond
    to any questions with respect to that Capital Request. Likewise, Submitter B cannot
    submit any documents or respond to any questions with respect to the Organization documents.




• Each time you submit an Organization documents or a Capital Request or add a user,
  you will receive a confirmation e-mail. Please check your spam folder if you do not
  receive a confirmation e-mail within several minutes.
