DCA (RAG) Amber
DCA text: The IPA Delivery Confidence Assessment (DCA) rating at Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) was Amber, which has not changed since last year's Q2 1819 Amber, due primarily to the following factors; - A very tight equipment modification schedule (CIP and Fleet Time Support Period) for HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH in order to make operational training timelines. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) Amber IPA DCA, the following non-project operating environment activities have impacted the original Q2 IPA DCA; - The global Coronavirus pandemic is having an effect across all CEPP programmes. SROs are working hard to mitigate the effects and deliver IOC(CS) on time in Dec 20. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) Amber IPA DCA, the following primary project actions have impacted the original Q2 IPA DCA; - The successful completion of F-35B/HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH integration testing during Operational Testing Period 1 (OT1) has significantly de-risked the programme and paved the way for a successful Lightning Force Carrier Qualification period in Feb 20. - Crowsnest Radar Powered Flight 1 was completed on 3 Feb 20, marking the first major milestone in flight test.
Start date 2011-01-31
End date 2030-12-31
Schedule text The scheduled baseline project end date at Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) is 01/12/26, has shortened by 1461 days since last year's Q2 1819 date of 01/12/30, due primarily to the following factors; - CEPP is on track to deliver IOC(CS) by 31 Dec 20, FOC(CS) by 31 Dec 23 and FOC (CEPP) by 1 Apr 26 as per the mandate. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) baseline project end date of 01/12/26, the following non-project operating environment activities have impacted the original Q2 baseline project end date; - Covid-19 may well have an impact on IOC(CS) on 31 Dec 20, but all SROs are working hard to mitigate any affects. The programme is still on track. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) baseline project end date of 01/12/26, the following primary project actions have impacted the original Q2 baseline project end date; - A regular process of review has been instigated to monitor/mitigate the effects of Covid-19.
Baseline £1.78m
Forecast £1.75m
Variance -0.02%
Variance text: Budget variance less than 5%
Whole Life Cost £21.57m
WLCost text: The baseline Whole Life Cost at Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) is £21.57m, has not changed since last year's Q2 1819 (£m) baseline Whole Life Cost of £21.57m, due primarily to the following factors; - Planning assumptions for support of all three programmes within CEPP are proving to be valid. - The support assumptions are continually validated to ensure the correct budgeting for further years. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) £21.57m baseline Whole Life Cost, the following non-project operating environment activities have impacted the original baseline Q2 Whole Life Cost; - Close out of the QEC build programme costs with the Aircraft Carrier Alliance. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) £21.57m baseline Whole Life Cost, the following primary project actions have impacted the original Q2 baseline Whole Life Cost; - A further WESTLANT deployment (Sep-Dec 19) which allowed further testing of support cost assumptions for QEC. - F-35B deployments to WESTLANT 19 for Operational Testing and to Exercise RED FLAG for operational training have allowed review of support assumptions.
