Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

OpenBIM integrated framework to standardize Life Cycle Cost (LCC) benchmarking of building projects
1028457
This Project is to develop practical methods related to the application of OpenBIM to facilitate the creation of a BIM- based model to be used to validate and verify the life cycle cost and environmental impacts modeling and to map the bill-of-work data with relevant inventory datasets at the different stages of building projects’ life cycle and to generate robust life cycle costs and analysis (LCC/LCCA) results to be used for sustainability purposes. This Project’s output will be important to establish the NRC OpenBIM-LCA-LCC web application and performance of benchmarks’ guideline, methodology and proof of concept for the bill of works and their associated costs for Canadian building archetypes.

Advanced Industrial Energy Management Information Systems & Asset Optimization
1029554
The food & beverage sector is a major contributor to global GHG emissions, with over a third of all man-made greenhouse gas emissions generated by food systems. Implementing an Energy Management Information System (EMIS) is key for industry to understand and optimize energy consumption.
Development and deployment of advanced analytics and machine learning EMIS modules will ensure energy consumption of is full optimized, losses are avoided, and carbon emissions are minimized.
