Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Enterprise Development Grant (EDG)?
The EDG is a grant administered by Enterprise Singapore that supports Singapore companies to upgrade, innovate, and transform. Custom software projects that improve productivity or build new digital capability typically fall under its Innovation & Productivity pillar (e.g. process redesign and automation).
How much funding can we get?
Support levels and caps are set by Enterprise Singapore and reviewed periodically — for SMEs the qualifying-cost support level has commonly been up to 50%. The exact amount depends on your project, your company, and prevailing EDG terms at the time of application. We’ll give you a clear quotation; Enterprise Singapore determines the grant.
Is AppTech a grant consultant?
No — we’re your software vendor. We provide the detailed proposal, scope, and quotation that support your application, and we deliver the project to the standard the grant requires. You apply directly on the Business Grants Portal, or through a grant consultant if you prefer; we’re happy to work alongside one.
Does the grant cover the whole project?
No grant covers 100%. EDG co-funds a portion of qualifying costs; your company funds the rest. Think of it as reducing the cost of a project you already want to do — not as free software.
How long does approval take?
Timelines are set by Enterprise Singapore and vary. Importantly, you must secure approval before the project starts — so the right sequence is: scope with us, apply, get approval, then we begin.
Disclaimer: AppTech Systems is a software development vendor, not a government agency or appointed grant consultant.
