7. Costing and business impact.

This is the last step in your business grant application. Provide the costing of the solution you are purchasing, and the expected business impact in the screen after that. Explain how this implementation will change the way you do things (eg: enforce social distancing among customers who want to enter your store), and the productivity gains - which tasks will be more efficient, and the percentage improvement expected.

Make sure to hit “Save” at every screen, before you proceed to the next step. It will make sure that you can continue the government grant application afterwards, in case you are not able to complete it right away.
