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.

ITEA: 22022 TREAT - Transforming Healthcare Through Semantic Interoperability & Patient Self-Efficacy
1012067
As part of the international consortium project “TREAT”, this project will focus on increasing patient self-efficacy in managing non-communicable diseases including diabetes, heart attacks, cancers and chronic respiratory diseases, by using an asynchronous model and integrating data from wearables, journals, and medical records. The project will develop novel wearables and software-based solutions, like semantic interoperability, automated care feedback loops with AI recommendations and novel interfaces using interactive augmented reality, to improve patient self-efficacy while driving clinical efficiencies.

Novel Supplementary Cementitious Materials from Concrete Waste - Phase 1
1013138
Preparatory stage of developing technology for converting recycled concrete remains obtained from construction and demolition waste and returned concrete leavings from ready mix concrete trucks into reactive Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM).
The technology is based on the principle of mechanochemical activation of the recycled concrete remains/leavings in energy intensive grinding mills where the produced inside the mill impacts cause generation of crystal lattice defects or other metastable forms in the concrete particle, thereby converting inert mineral into a reactive material. The obtained reactive mineral material can be further used as a reactive (pozzolanic or hydraulic) SCM.

Developing an Open Building Information Modeling (BIM) integrated framework to standardize the life
cycle environmental benchmarking of building projects
1013600
The goal of this project is to design and develop practical methods related to the application of Open-BIM to facilitate the creation of a BIM-based model that can be used to validate and verify the life cycle cost and environmental impacts modeling and to automatically map the bill-of-work data with relevant inventory datasets at the different stages of building projects over their life cycle and to generate robust LCA results to be used for sustainability purposes. This project’s output will be principal for establishing the NRC OpenBIM-LCA web application and the performance of level benchmarks guideline, methodology and proof of concept for the bill of works for Canadian building archetypes.
