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:

ARP - Technical and economic feasibility - prefabricated construction robotization.

Agreement Number:

1001054

Duration: from Jan 23, 2023 to Sep 15, 2023
Description:

This research and development project is intended to reduce the technological risks associated with the robotized manufacturing stages of a completely prefabricated wood construction system. To achieve this, technical details, feasibility analyses, performance studies and profitability scenarios must be generated. All of this work will be possible thanks, among other things, to the generation of prototypes in a traditional manufacturing context.
