| Description: | The NHSmail 2 project will identify a solution and deliver a replacement to the existing NHSmail service. |
| DCA (RAG) | Amber |
| DCA text: | The programme has continued to work closely with the supplier on delivery against the agreed Service Improvement Plan, which has now achieved the desired effect of increasing service resilience and improving the quality of service provided by the the service desk. Decommissioning activites with the exiting supplier are drawing to a close with only the destruction of the physical hard drives remaining. Skype for Business Instant Messaging and Presence pilots have now completed with mass enablement underway, the Audio and Video pilots are now progressing to cover clinical scenerios. Work is currently underway to confirm the affordability pressures post March 2017. |

| Baseline | £17.19m |
| Forecast | £25.11m |
| Variance | 46.00% |
| Variance text: | Forecast is off profile due to delays with the new supplier being ready to start migration following delays in contract signature and engagement with the incumbent. Migration commenced in the last week of May 2016 which led to continuation costs with the incumbent to September 2016. In December 2015 the rebaseline of spend was approved with the successful bidder and an additional three month service with exiting supplier. |
