Case Study: Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago achieves automated cloud grant management and compliance with PyanGo

Automates Grant Management in the Cloud and Ensures Compliance With Grant Requirements With Pyango

The Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago (TTIC), a small computer science graduate research institute, faced a paper-based, spreadsheet-driven grant accounting process that made compliance and timely visibility into grant balances difficult. TTIC moved to the NetSuite cloud ERP but needed a dedicated grant-management extension, so they implemented PyanGo’s grant management solution to centralize and modernize grant tracking and approvals.

PyanGo delivered a NetSuite-integrated grant management system that automated reporting, provided real-time visibility into remaining grant balances, supported custom indirect-cost handling, and empowered faculty to monitor their own awards. The result was stronger compliance, fewer reactive journal entries, and major time savings—reconciliation per grant dropped from about a day to roughly one hour per quarter—along with faster decision-making and high-touch support from PyanGo.
