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.

Youth EMployment Program - Software Mathematician

Agreement Number:

977247

Duration: from Aug 9, 2021 to Jan 17, 2022
Description:

Obviously any factory uses rotating machines and over time, this degraded machinery can increase consumption of power between 1% to 10% of their KWh electricity usage.
Over or Under maintained machinery will be inefficient from the perspective of maintenance cost and energy consumption.
Currently factories do not have any precise measurement to have a big picture of potential energy savings they can achieve through asset maintenance based on vibration monitoring and prescribe them a way to increase energy efficiency.
Our platform included PCB electronic board design and assembly, Firmware coding, Cloud based software development and more.
To answer client requests, we are design and developing new version UI/Gateway/Dashboard system.
