How EDGE works
- Pick the business area and activity that fits your project.
- Apply before you commit to the spend.
- Deliver the project and pay the supplier in full.
- Claim the grant.
Before you apply
- Check eligibility, including any local shareholding requirement
- Get quotations from suppliers that fit the activity
- Do not sign or pay before approval
- Keep invoices and proof of payment for the claim
Why grant claims fail
Most failed claims fail on process, not on the merits of the project. The patterns we see:
- Spending before approval. A contract signed or a deposit paid before the grant is approved usually makes that cost ineligible.
- Changing the supplier or scope without telling the agency before the change.
- Incomplete proof of payment: invoices without matching bank records, or payments made from a personal account.
- Missing the claim deadline after the project ends.
Keep a simple grant file from day one: the approval letter, the approved scope and budget, each invoice with its payment record, and any correspondence on changes. When the claim is due, the file is the claim.
