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.

Harness Drafting Tool Pre-Commercialization
1037813
Guild Automation will undertake a 15-week initiative focused on developing a harness-drafting tool that helps with converting customer harness designs into scale formboard drawings. We have an existing customer that is utilizing our services for help in this area and is anxious to start using our tools. Through discussions with other harness manufacturers, we have established that this is an unmet need in the market. The desired outcome from this project is to launch a functional demonstrator version of our tool, laying the groundwork for our production launch in late 2026.
