How many PSG grants can a company apply for?

Companies can put in more than one PSG application depending on business needs. However, support can only be extended for one package per solution category per deployment location.


Supportable applications are:

  • The purchase of one unit of either an equipment/IT solution per deployment;
  • Subsequent purchase of the IT solutions to be deployed at a different location

This means that if the Applicant applies subsequently (i.e. after the first application) for the same IT solution to be deployed at the same location, this application will be rejected.


Please note that for Remote Working Solution categories ("Online Collaboration Tools" and "Virtual Meeting Tools"), each business entity may only be supported for one application per category.

What is the processing time for applications?

Applications are processed within 4-6 weeks from the submission of all required information.


Companies are strongly encouraged to submit their applications ahead of time to account for the application outcome and/or processing duration required.

Where can Applicants check the status of their grant application?

An email will be sent to the company’s contact person with the status of the submitted grant application.


Alternatively, Applicants may log in to the Business Grants Portal (BGP). Under the “My Applications” section, they can view the status of their grant application by toggling between the tabs (Drafts/Processing/Actions Required/ Completed).


Reminder emails will also be sent when the application is returned for further clarifications. Applicants may make the necessary clarifications via BGP. Inactive applications may be withdrawn by ESG.
