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.

Investigation of advanced data analytics and machine learning for Cloud-based reporting
953205
Smart Skin proposes to develop a remote diagnostic solution to provide even more value to by allowing businesses to easily share and compare data between similar plants and lines they have throughout the world. This will enable businesses to move beyond the local optimization of a single line to global optimization of their entire worldwide plant operations. For example, by comparing Quantifeel data from two or more lines businesses will be able to determine why one line is operating at a higher efficiency than another, narrowing down the areas and equipment that may be operating differently.
