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.

With 13 years of experience in the industry, Symboticware has identified an opportunity to create a $350B annual value for the resource industry. A part of this value can be captured by our newly developed software, 4-Sight.ai. However, a large part of the value will be driven by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

This has been validated by the market in the form of 5 new deals that we've signed/are in process of signing with large players for 4-Sight.ai. They all like what they see on the existing 4-Sight.ai, but are asking for AI/ML-based solutions to improve the productivity, reliability, efficiency, and carbon effectiveness of their fleet. We've already identified use-cases and algorithms in collaboration with customers.
