How to submit your programme and budget projections by 20 November.
Introduction to programme and budget projections
Investment funded organisations are required to submit programme and budget projections for the following year by 20 November of each year.
Please schedule a kōrero with your lead adviser before you announce next year’s programme so we can make sure we’re on the same page about how your investment funding will be applied. We’ve prepared a list of prompts (similar to those used for 6-monthly reporting) to help with this conversation.
You can view, update, and submit annual programme and budget projections through CNZ’s portal (link)
NB: Once we’ve approved the programme in the portal, these activities will be defined as your 'CNZ Funded Activity' for the year. That means that you cannot apply to any other funding rounds open to Investment organisations for:
- Additional funding to address a shortfall in your budget for any of these 'CNZ Funded Activities'.
- Additional funding to extend any of these 'CNZ Funded Activities'.
How to complete and submit your programme and budget projections
- Sign in to your CNZ account (link) and open your 'Application dashboard'.
- Select the current funding agreement from the list of applications (e.g. Organisation name - Tōtara/Kahikatea 2023-2025). You will see three tabs: 'Applicant Details', 'Programme & Budget', 'Attachments'
- On the 'Applicant details' tab you can change the primary contact person and/or invite others so that they can view/update the programme & budget information.
- On the 'Programme & Budget' tab you can see the Amount Requested, Amount Offered and the Programme & Budget Status for each year.
- To enter programme and budget projections, select the 'Programme and Budget' tab and click Edit for the relevant year.
- Select the 'Programme' tab.
- Use the window on the Programme tab to enter a summary of the programme.
- Use the + Add a new activity button or View/Edit if there are already activities present (e.g. activities were entered as part of your 2022 RFP submission).
- Refer to Entering programme projections for more detailed guidance.
- Select the 'Budget' tab to enter financial projections.
NB: TEOs and their subsidiaries, council-controlled organisations, regional galleries and museums, organisations funded less than $75,000 per annum by CNZ, and multi-national companies do not need to provide financial projections.
Refer to Entering financial projections for more detailed guidance.
- When you have finished entering projections, click Submit.
- Select the 'Programme' tab.
- Going back to the Application page, use the third tab (Attachments) to upload any documents you want to share with CNZ. These might include your response to the Programme & Budget prompts, plans, strategies, policies, organisational charts etc.
- You can mark previously uploaded documents as ‘not current’ here too.
- When complete, click Submit new attachments.
