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 High-Qualification, Fully Characterized, High-Performance Processing Platform for Demanding Constellation Missions
20STDPK37
Xiphos Systems Corporation will develop and qualify the Q7AE, a new addition to its family of high-performance and low size, weight, and power (SWaP) COTS-based processors. The Q7AE (“Advanced Edition”) will be a key element of a new generation of satellites that enable low-cost space science, earth observation, space weather, synthetic aperture radar, IoT and communications missions for commercial, government, and space agency customers. This product is targeted at applications where strict adherence to radiation upset rate and availability targets must be met for demanding missions. The Q7AE will be distinguished as a processor optimized to provide high reliability and performance in harsh radiation environments. As a ready-made, flexible solution, this product will the reduce cost, risk and development time of demanding, long-duration, and high-LEO missions.
