Funding, in context
EDG is closed to new applications. EDG, PSG and MRA moved to EDGE for new applications on 30 September 2026. Submissions made before that date and ongoing projects continue under their original schemes. Check the official EDGE overview.
EDGE's overall annual limit and digital-solution sub-cap refresh on 1 April. This can help you consider eligible new activities in future grant years, subject to assessment and the rules for each activity.
It is not automatic yearly funding for the same system. Selected single-function digital solutions and integrated enterprise systems are limited to one application per UEN. An annual refresh does not override that limit or allow the same supported expenses to be claimed again. Check annual limits and application conditions ↗
Apps, ERP and workflow automation
A ready tool, an integrated ERP and a bespoke workflow are different buying decisions. They should not share an automatic funding promise.
For checkout, customer queues or attendance, first see whether an existing product already does the job.
Funding checkpointCheck the specific activity and any pre-approved solution requirement. A FlowLab demo is not proof of grant eligibility.
Try FlowLab's product workflows ↗When finance, stock and sales need a common operating platform, assess an ERP rather than a collection of isolated screens.
Funding checkpointThe ERP activity requires at least three qualifying functions. Other vendors may be considered when required functions are unavailable in pre-approved packages.
Check the official ERP activity ↗For unusual approvals, dispatch rules or customer journeys, scope the data, roles and integrations around the actual work.
Funding checkpointCustom development does not automatically qualify. Confirm a suitable activity and its cost rules, or assess a sensible self-funded first release.
Explore business app development ↗FlowLab does not claim to be an EDGE pre-approved vendor. A project proposal is not an eligibility decision. Verify activity-specific vendor rules ↗
Make the business case concrete
Illustrative planning example, not a client result or a grant-approved project.
An order arrives in chat, someone copies it into a spreadsheet, and dispatch waits for a call. Changes can leave more than one version of the order.
Agree which fields identify the order, who can change it, which status moves it forward, and how dispatch records completion.
Record the current handling steps. Set acceptance tests for ownership, exceptions, permissions, backup and exports. Compare actual use after rollout, without inventing savings in advance.
The useful question is not how many screens to build. It is which handoff needs to become dependable. Read Ronald's firsthand LPG operations story ↗
Free project-planning worksheet
Use these prompts before speaking to a developer or reviewing a grant activity. No email registration is needed for the download.
What is copied, chased or delayed? Which people and records are involved?
What must work on day one, and what can wait for a later phase?
Who owns each record? What access, validation, backups and exports are needed?
Ask for build, setup, subscriptions, training, support and tax to be itemised. These are quote categories, not a list of claimable costs.
Confirm vendor conditions, deliverables and exclusions against the official activity page.
Know who handles the application, when commitment is safe for your business, and how completion will be demonstrated.
A plain-text worksheet you can edit or print. This is FlowLab planning material, not an official grant application form.

FlowLab keeps the scope, delivery plan and next step clear at each stage.
Show us one task your team retypes or chases and share a comfortable budget. A spreadsheet or example is enough to start.
Agree the work and price before work starts. 50% deposit to begin, balance on handover.
Review the screens, test the agreed tasks together and hand over the app with the access and guidance agreed in your quote.
Starting prices
Share a budget you are comfortable with. We can explore one useful improvement first, rather than replacing everything at once.
A fixed quote before any work starts. 50% deposit to begin, balance on handover.
Starting prices cover a small, agreed scope. Hosting, third-party fees and ongoing support are quoted separately. Your quote confirms what is included and any recurring costs.

Straight answers
Reviewed 15 October 2026. Check the official EDGE grant activities and Enterprise Singapore FAQs for current rules. This is project-planning guidance, not a grant approval or eligibility assessment.
EDGE is Enterprise Singapore's activity-based business grant framework. It brings together the former EDG, PSG and MRA routes for new projects from 30 September 2026. The selected activity determines the conditions, not the software label alone.
EDG, PSG and MRA closed to new applications on 29 September 2026. Submissions made before 30 September 2026 and ongoing projects continue under their original schemes. New applications use EDGE; an existing award does not become invalid because of the transition.
Applicants need a Singapore-registered business and at least 30% Singaporean or PR ownership. Additional conditions depend on the chosen activity.
SMEs generally receive up to 50% of qualifying costs. Higher rates apply to certain internationalisation and sustainability activities, not every app build. Check the activity's actual support level.
The company-wide limit is S$100,000 per grant year, renewed on 1 April. Within this, S$30,000 applies to single-function digital solutions, integrated enterprise systems and pre-scoped equipment.
The overall limit and digital-solution sub-cap refresh on 1 April. Eligible new activities may be considered in later grant years, subject to assessment. This is not automatic annual funding for the same project. Selected single-function digital solutions and integrated enterprise systems are limited to one application per UEN, and the annual refresh does not override that restriction.
No automatic eligibility applies. Some activities require listed vendors; others allow vendor choice. FlowLab does not claim pre-approval or guarantee funding. Verify the selected activity before engaging a supplier.
No. Your authorised staff submit through the Business Grants Portal with Corppass. FlowLab provides its scope, quotation and deliverables, not grant submission on your behalf.
Submit before starting work or paying a supplier. Commitment between submission and approval is at your company's risk. We recommend waiting for written approval when funding is essential.
No. EDGE pays by reimbursement after the activity is completed and fully paid. Your company must plan its cash flow rather than treating potential funding as an immediate discount.
Timing varies by activity. Check the relevant official activity page rather than relying on an old EDG processing estimate.
