How does the Wisconsin Partnership Program determine if supplanting might occur?
Each applicant must answer the application’s non-supplanting questionnaire before an award decision can be made. The nonsupplanting questionnaire solicits information from applicants that is necessary to make a determination that Wisconsin Partnership funds will not supplant or replace funds otherwise available to applicants from other sources. The application asks organizations to indicate whether they have applied for other funds for this project. There may be times when several grant cycles overlap with the Wisconsin Partnership Program grant cycle. How should that be reported? In completing the application, organizations are required to indicate on the non-supplanting questionnaire if they’ve also applied to other granting agencies for the same project. If they are funded by the Wisconsin Partnership Program and also receive an award from another granting agency for the same project, the Oversight and Advisory Committee may withdraw its funding.
