| 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; - The focus of the programme at Q2 1819 was on readiness for on-boarding suppliers and completing service integration activities. These challenges were worked through successfully and replaced with fresh challenges, such as readiness for Rehearsal. The programme will continue to carry a level of risk in the short/medium term. - Despite much collaboration with other government departments the programme is still experiencing delays to the receipt of admin data. Teams are implementing contingencies and workarounds to continue with the transformation of statistics and supporting the Census in the meantime. Since the Q2 1920 (30th September 2019) Amber IPA DCA, the following non-project operating environment activities have impacted the original Q2 IPA DCA; - Impact and delay to the mandatory Census legislation due to the prioritisation of the political situation at the time- EU Exit and the early General Election.
