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.

Agreement:

Eureka Canada-E!18927-Data for Digital Twins-Streamlining 3D CAD data preparation pipeline for digital twin applications

Agreement Number:

1012820

Duration: from Sep 6, 2023 to Oct 31, 2024
Description:

As part of the international consortium project “E!18927-Data for Digital Twins-Streamlining 3D CAD data preparation pipeline for digital twin applications”, this project will focus on developing a streamlined data preparation pipeline for a digital twin project for the automotive industry. To create an accurate and detailed representation of the customer's equipment, CATIA files, which is a type of 3D CAD file, will be imported into Unity using the proposed data preparation pipeline. These files contain information about the physical attributes of the equipment, such as its size, shape, and materials. This data will be used to create a 3D model of the equipment within the digital twin solution.
