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.

LERA Rotary Actuator for Extreme Environments
24STDPU26
MDA’s Lunar Exploration Robotic Arm (LERA) product will be the workhorse robotic solution for commercial lunar exploration. The LERA Rotary Actuator is at the core of this manipulator. This project will develop the LERA Actuator for the extreme conditions on the lunar surface and will prove the viability of the actuator through environmental testing. LERA adds to the family of MDA robotic manipulators in the new and exciting lunar surface market.

K-Band Up/Down Converter
24STDPU31
The objective of this project is to support the development of K-Band up/down converters (UDC) in the first phase followed by a second phase where the converters will be integrated into a single package with additional features and functionality added. This development will produce flexible, adaptable UDCs for Software Defined Satellite applications. The target of this project is TRL6 flight ready modules.

X-Band Up/Down Converter
24STDPV24
This project will take the designs to TRL4 level, with prototype modules designed and assembled for benchtop testing. The up and down converters will be integrated into a single module. In addition, a space rated microcontroller for controlling our flight ready UDCs will be added. The integrated UDC will be benchtop tested. The controller hardware will be designed as a prototype PCBA to interface to the converter modules.
