HMIS Data Entry/Reporting
Reporting and documentation are what make a successful grant management program, but in order to achieve solid reports, you need to make sure your data entry practices are straightforward, reporting is easy and sufficient to meet all of your grant reporting needs.
Our client-centered approach produces accurate HMIS data, paired with a deep understanding of grant and funder reporting requirements. All of these components equal more accurate reporting. We also assess your PIT, LSA, SPM, CAPER and APR data for inclusion in your grant applications.
Delegate the burden of data entry and reporting to our experts here at Nutmeg IT Consulting Connecticut. Our understanding of HMIS platforms and HMIS data standards results in comprehensive grant reports for your agency.
