Your End-to-End Municipal Funding Path: Financing, Grants and Expert Procurement Support
NCL’s partnership with Navigator delivers a proactive, execution-first funding strategy that enables agencies to move projects forward immediately using flexible, compliant financing—while simultaneously pursuing available grant opportunities to reduce overall project cost. By leading with financing, agencies avoid delays, lock in pricing, and maintain momentum, with Navigator providing expert support to identify, manage, and secure supplemental grant funding as it becomes available.
NCL Government Capital ensures projects get approved, ordered, and delivered by financing the full scope upfront, including match requirements, timing gaps, or reimbursement delays. Navigator works in parallel to maximize grant dollars that can be applied during or after execution. Together, the partnership takes agencies from “approved and moving forward” to “delivered and funded,” ensuring critical equipment, infrastructure, and technology initiatives are never put on hold while waiting on grants.
One Streamlined Path: From Secured Funding to Equipment Delivery
Our partnership with Navigator creates a seamless bridge between seeking funding and equipment being delivered. With financing secured, projects move forward while Navigator seeks out available grant funding to offset total cost. Agencies gain a single, coordinated process that supports grant discovery, application strategy, and compliant funding structures with Funding Navigator. By combining expert grant guidance with flexible, competitively-bid financing options, we help shorten timelines, eliminate roadblocks, and ensure agencies can confidently advance critical initiatives from concept to completion.
"I stumbled across Funding Navigator while looking for equipment grants. At first, I thought, ‘Is this too good to be true?’ But after using it, I realized, it really is what it says it is."

Why Combining Financing & Grants Maximizes Your Buying Power
Financial Expertise | Grant Identification
NCL Government Capital provides the financing strategies needed to purchase equipment and complete projects on time while Navigator seeks out available grant funds to offset overall cost.
Unified Path From Application to Acquisition
Our teams coordinate early in the process to ensure timelines, procurement rules, and grant requirements align seamlessly with compliant financing structures backed by 25+ years of experience.
Close Funding & Timing Gaps
A 'wait and see" approach leads to project delays and additional cost. With financing secured, uncertainty around grant amounts, matching requirements or reimbursement timelines are removed.
Faster Project Timelines
Agencies reduce delays and move essential initiatives forward with confidence by integrating grant discovery and support in parallel to NCL's competitively-bid financing solutions.
Compliance at Every Stage of the Process
The combined workflow ensures agencies meet all grant conditions while following approved cooperative purchasing and financing standards. NCL holds a competitively-bid and awarded Sourcewell contract for leasing & financing.
Funding Plans for Any Project Size
Whether upgrading equipment, replacing aging infrastructure, or launching new programs, our combined approach delivers tailored solutions that maximize available funding for your projects.
Financing should be integrated into your funding strategy from the outset—not introduced after delays, missed production slots, or funding gaps emerge. Through the NCL Government Capital and Navigator partnership, agencies can take a “move forward now” approach—securing equipment, locking in today’s pricing, and reserving their place in the production or delivery queue while grant opportunities are pursued in parallel.
When agencies rely solely on grant identification as the first step, critical questions often remain unanswered:
-
-
- What is the timing gap between approval and award?
- Is a local or cash match required?
- When must the equipment be ordered to meet operational or budgetary deadlines?
-
Grant funding can reduce cost. Financing protects timing. NCL Government Capital ensures both work together so critical projects don't stall.
