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.

Template for Electrical Component Creation for Solver

Agreement Number:

918717

Duration: from Nov 12, 2018 to May 17, 2019
Description:

Each new electrical troubleshooting training module that we create requires new components. The product management team includes various aspects of each component's requirements in their specification documents but these specs do not include all the steps of component creation. Some other aspects include: experimental lab tools development, unit testing, integration testing, performance testing, visual and audible component characteristics, and electrical and non-electrical details about fault modes.

Advanced Learning Project

Agreement Number:

906138

Duration: from Apr 2, 2018 to Nov 30, 2018
Description:

The objectives of this project are to make the firm's training platform more flexible to add new modules and to enhancing the learning experience of the circuit simulation software through the following feature additions:

. Introduce variability into the training flow based on: organization configuration, the performance of the student during their training, and the overall training results of all students.

· Integration to third party Learning Management Systems (LMS).

· Enhanced flexibility in reporting of student and overall organization training results. Integration with third party reporting tools.

· Simplified introduction of enhancements to the existing training (I.e. addition of new simulation faults and/or tweaks for specific faults that are problematic).
