To reduce the administrative burden for applicants when an Alliance application fails its administrative review, the Alliance Grants team wanted to review its competition data and explore alternatives to rejection.  The team used an Ideas Lab to generate potential projects which were approved by management prior to the Hackathon. The Hackathon itself was devoted to analyzing the existing data on rejected applications and brainstorming alternatives to rejection. The work continued following the Hackathon where changes were recommended based on their previous work and community feedback.

Prior to this work, a working group from Research Grants and Scholarship (RGS) directorate would prepare slides and a script for webinars, then get it approved and translated. Then comes the lengthy process of preparation and conducting the presentations at fixed times, not always convenient for applicants. There was a need to create reusable material with flexible access by applicants and reviewers for better information and communication outcomes; this is to replace the traditional and long 2-hour webinar sessions.
