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:

Digital Twin for Critical Facility

Agreement Number:

999022

Duration: from Oct 1, 2022 to Mar 31, 2023
Description:

A Digital Twin is a dynamic software model or representation of a real-world object, system, or entity of interest. It offers a realistic visual representation of the physical asset, generated by linking the measured data such as temperature, power, airflow, pressure, vibration, etc. It dynamically updates based on the above heterogeneous sources, utilization, and performance of the asset. A digital Twin can be used in place of the physical entity to improve operational performance. We will use data from various sensors and other multiple sources to build a Digital Twin for 2D & 3D visualization of the Data Center floors. This part will augment our existing product line of AIaaS and generate a new stream of revenue for the company.
