Frequently Asked Questions

JustGrants is the new grants management system developed by DOJ. JustGrants replaces the Grants Management System used by OJP and the Office on Violence Against Women, as well as the NexGen system used by the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services.

There are six foundational roles created to ensure entity users have the authority and ability to carry out specific requirements and tasks:

• Entity administrator.
• Grant award administrator—usually the POC in the old system.
• Application submitter.
• Alternate grant administrator.
• Authorized representative.
• Financial manager—usually the financial POC in the old system.

Multiple roles can be assigned to a single user. For more details regarding roles, visit JustGrants User Roles Guide. 

Your entity administrator must successfully set up their JustGrants account and enroll in the Automated Standard Application for Payments (ASAP) to accept and manage their award. If you have enrolled in ASAP and JustGrants, you can proceed with accepting an award in JustGrants. Please note: The authorized representative is the only role that is able to accept or decline an award. That individual must also be assigned to the award and must be the person that reviews and accepts the award.

For information on how applicants and entities will register and onboard their users into JustGrants, visit the Securely Onboard Your Entity Users to JustGrants section of the “Getting Started” page.

To determine whether your organization is already enrolled with JustGrants, contact the grant manager listed on the award or OJP Support (email: [email protected]; phone: 833–872–5175).

If your entity is not already registered in JustGrants, visit the Securely Onboard Your Entity Users to JustGrants section of the “Getting Started” page to find out how applicants and entities will register and onboard their users.
