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.

AI Assist: Automating Moving with Integration of AI Vision Agents

Agreement Number:

1028311

Duration: from Feb 7, 2025 to Nov 8, 2025
Description:

We are building an AI vision agent to streamline and fully automate the booking process on our platform. The agent will have the ability to accurately analyze the dimensions, weight, and volume, of large cargo (like household furniture) then recommend an ideal vehicle size, number of movers, and provide an accurate price quote.
To keep the test scenarios more narrow, we will build and test in a controlled environment. The agent will operate within predefined inventory options, using prompts and guardrails to ensure reliability and consistency. Once validated in this controlled environment, we will expand it to additional use cases, ultimately enhancing the customer experience for all our users and use cases.
