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.

Hazard Perception Evaluation
999899
HPE has been available to our customers since 2006 and is used to evaluate each driver against six major categories of driver behavior which are key to being a safe driver. HPE determines the training lessons each driver will be assigned based on the behavior which needs to change. The HPE module includes interactive videos, is browser-based, and currently is only used on a laptop or desktop. The need to make the HPE mobile-friendly has increased due to competitive pressures and requests from existing customers who are shifting to mobile devices. This project will make HPE usable on mobile phones by redesigning the user interface and maximizing the screen utilization on mobile devices across multiple OEMs, including Android and IOS.
