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.

AI/ML Implementation for Email & Documentation Sorting
1013111
The inundation of emails containing invoices, purchase orders, vendor inquiries, and other communications in the accounts payable and receivable processes poses a significant challenge. Email is still the preferred method for many organizations for sending bills, invoices, purchase orders, and other AP/AR documents. The proposed initiative seeks to implement an AI-driven system to automate email intake and routing, thereby increasing efficiency and accuracy. The addition of a dedicated resource – an AI Operations Specialist – is critical to the successful development, implementation, and maintenance of this system.

Adaptive Medication Assistant
1013821
More than 50% of patients are unintentionally non-adherent for a variety of social, economic, environmental, behavioral and psychological reasons. This is a massive challenge for customers and patients alike, as a therapy is only as effective when it is taken properly. The Intelligent Medication Assistant feature helps deliver ‘soft’ adherence support, a concept and original IP to address the lack of adherence to medication in patients.

Addressing global climate change knowledge gaps: Next generation black carbon instruments
1013854
The objective of this collaboration is the robust calibration of the PTIS (Photothermal Interferometry and Scattering) instrument, such that this instrument can act as a reference standard in calibrating other instruments. Ultimately the partnership will develop calibration standards, in the form of well[1]characterized particles of a known composition, that can act to anchor measurements in the real-world and provide the uncertainties necessary for constraining climate effects of atmospheric aerosols. In summary, this partnership aims to develop synthetic nanoparticles for light[1]absorption calibration using an aerosol of metal particles.
