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.

A Large Language Model (LLM)–Based Agentic Internet of Things Platform for Methane Emissions Reduction
1039677
This project develops an AI-enabled methane monitoring platform to solve data fragmentation. The platform features dynamic AI visualization for role-specific dashboards and automated, compliance-ready reporting (OGMP 2.0/MiQ). This establishes a scalable, trusted emissions management solution, accelerating regulatory adoption and positioning Canada as a leader in global methane reduction technology.

An 5G-based Connected Work Platform based on IoT and Cloud
981693
The proposed project will deliver a 5G-based and Internet-of-Things-enabled connected worker platform that empowers frontline workers to improve work safety, quality, productivity, and job satisfaction. The core of this research is a 5G-based smartphone sensor hub, provides not only a front-end interface for frontline workers but also acts as a 5G edge device fusing a very large amount of heterogeneous wearable sensor data for performing Movement AI predictions in real-time. Example Movement AI predictions include fatigue and stress prediction, activities detection, ultra-fine resolution geo-fencing, in-door localization, frontline worker First Time Right (FTR) rate, overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), and more.

Development of a New Open Geospatial Consortium Standard and Open-Source Software for Methane Data Exchange and Emission Reduction
GNS21-22IFP1
The purpose of this agreement/project is to provide innovative solution(s) that will increase awareness, adoption, and further development of the Canadian Geospatial Data Infrastructure. The CGDI is a digital infrastructure that provides interoperability and access to Canada's geospatial information on the Internet. It is available to government and non-government decision-makers who are focused on social, economic and environmental priorities and to the Canadian population at large.
