I would like to suggest the following:

Type of funding being requested. (aka "category")

i) Advance payment
ii) Ongoing cost reimbursements.
ii) Claim/One time cost reimbursement. (cover costs after the fact)

These are literally the three types of funding requests that are applicable in any project arena and if it is made clear straight from the word "GO" as to which of the three is being requested, then we are ensuring that those of us who are voting KNOW this key piece of information.

Second recommendation/sharing of thoughts:

Key Performance Indicators (KPI) be incorporated into the template.

(this was mentioned to me by GP ages ago in a conversation)

Without KPI we do not have a standardized means of ensuring that stake holders have a crystal clear means of tracking anything.

These are applicable for all three of the funding categories listed in the first part of this comment.

With the addition that a "Claim/One time cost reimbursement" should in addition to KPI provide crystal clear evidence of costs involved. Without which no such claim should be considered acceptable by any professional business standards.

For now, that is about all that comes to mind as constructive suggestions to the formal template.

& it is a great idea to get this out into the open, so that our administrative DHF business practices start to meet the standards expected in the competitive markets.

Great move, fully support it.

Cheers.
