AM Features

This content applies solely to Award Management, which must be purchased separately from the Appian base platform.

The Award Management Solution contains a wide range of features that allow your organization to monitor, track, and execute the activities, actions, and workflows associated with your award contracts. The tables below provides a quick reference of the solution's available features by functional area.

Note: Only business users with the appropriate group membership can access and modify certain solution settings. This ensures that only a select few have access to sensitive processes and information.
