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:

AI-Assisted Digital Inspection of Critical Civil Infrastructure

Agreement Number:

1033029

Duration: from Jun 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026
Description:

The project focuses on the condition assessment and performance evaluation of existing civil infrastructure using advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) methods powered by AI-driven data analysis. To achieve this, FPrimeC will develop a labeled and validated inventory of various types of damage in civil infrastructure. This inventory will be used to train a machine learning model capable of automatically detecting different types of anomalies (e.g., cracks, voids, delamination, and corrosion signatures). Once the development is completed, the trained model will be applied to evaluate the current condition of structures, predict the remaining service life, and anticipate potential failures by integrating a digital twin technology.
