Krypton is an Open Source Grant Management Software Developed by a County for the Benefit of All Counties. Krypton gives an agency the ability to manage and track their grants during the post-award stage (i.e. during the performance period). The software provides end-users with the ability to track all the grant-level details about a grant, funding sources and their unique time periods, both programmatic and financial reporting requirements, ad-hoc alerts, and is the repository for grant documentation. Furthermore, Krypton delivers reporting through email subscriptions, with embedded hyperlinks for easy system access. The software was built using the Microsoft suite of applications, that are readily available to agencies that work with Microsoft tools (Create, Read, Update, and Delete application sitting on top of a SQL server database). Krypton has allowed our front line workers to spend more time in the community, versus tracking and managing grants.
