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.

Integrating Simulator Human Performance Data with Decision Support Systems
1008110
Virtual Marine (VM) is a leader in simulator-based training for small vessel (lifeboat and fast response boat) and ice management operations. VM collects data from multiple simulators in the field which is used to analyze performance and improve training programs. To deal with an increasing volume of data, VM aims to develop methods to autonomously combine data from multiple simulator types. To extend value to users, software will be developed to utilize data sets to inform machine learning models used in adaptive trainers, and to use training data as inputs to a Decision Support System to mitigate risk in offshore operations. In effect, VM will advance their ability to link human performance data with live Digital Twins.
