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.

Agreement:

Industrialization of off-site construction of structural components and panel houses (pilot phase).

Agreement Number:

1030871

Duration: from May 12, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

A set of digital tools was developed in 2024-2025 to facilitate the design process for multi-story buildings using standardized structural components. BIM objects, a Revit plug-in, and a collaboration portal including transport calculations and carbon impact have been implemented. Preliminary tests carried out on these tools have demonstrated the viability of the concept in facilitating exchanges between architects, structural engineers, and structural component manufacturers. Before deploying the tools on a large scale, concrete building projects must first be designed in which architects, engineers, and manufacturers will have the opportunity to use the tool and work in integrated project delivery. This will initially provide recommendations for user improvements and then evaluate the gains compared to the current back-and-forth method.
