Lost Grant Opportunities from Application Bottlenecks
Definition
Low approval rates (19% in NSW CDF); extended timelines for assessment, negotiation, and agreements delay funding access.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: 81% rejection rate = lost funding potential; e.g., 139 rejected apps at avg AUD 130,000 = AUD 18M+ opportunity loss per round[3][4]
- Frequency: Per grant round; e.g., NSW CDF receives 171 apps/round
- Root Cause: Bureaucratic delays in consolidated plan preparation and submission
Why This Matters
