NGMA Welcomes New CAPP Partner Forerunner

NGMA welcomes new Corporate Alliance Partnership Program (CAPP) partner Forerunner. Forerunner is an AI-powered geospatial platform that enhances efficiency, automates workflows, and centralizes your agency’s most critical tasks.

Q: What do you love about grants management?

Grants management is about more than processes and paperwork - it’s about connecting vital funding to the people and communities who need it most. When managed well, a grant can become the foundation for real-world change: helping families strengthen their homes against storms, empowering local nonprofits to expand their reach, or fueling long-term resilience in entire communities. Watching those dollars transform into tangible impact is one of the most rewarding parts of this work.

Q: What would you like NGMA members to know about your company?

Forerunner helps more than 160 cities, counties, and states tackle growing environmental and infrastructure challenges. Our AI-powered geospatial platform helps communities keep grants organized and funding on track - streamlining application intake and review, tracking data and contractors, ensuring compliance, and simplifying reporting.

Q: What is a surprising fact about your company?

We were founded by urban planners and designers, not software engineers. This background shapes our mission-driven approach to building technology. It allows us to bridge the gap between innovative tools and the real needs of local governments.
