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.

Development of a holistic approach for the simulation of the powder bed additive manufacturing process
972124
Metal additive manufacturing (AM), and more particularly the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process, is a very fast-growing technological field. An integral part of the Industry 4.0 concept, AM technology fully embraces the digital manufacturing vision. The development and implementation of AM on new applications are generally slowed down due to the complexity of the physical phenomena and the lack of high-fidelity reliable models. The objective of this project is to develop a reliable digital modeling platform faithfully representing the entire process to reduce the cost of development of new parts (or new materials) which currently relies on a laborious and expensive experimental approach. This project is based on the
complementarity of strong expertise shared between the NRC and the academic partners and the expected results should enable industrial partners who are members of the METALTec industrial research group to increase their competitiveness in the field of AM or to accelerate the adoption of the LPBF process.
