| Description: | To deliver the seven Boat Astute Class within approved performance, cost and time parameters, while actively contributing to the sustainment of the UK submarine design and manufacturing capability. |
| DCA (RAG) | Amber/Red |
| DCA text: | Compared to financial year 19/20-Q2, the Infrastructure Project Authority's Delivery Confidence Assessment rating remained at Amber/red. This is primarily due to the following factors: The Astute programme had previously reported schedule delays to Boat 4 and Boat 5, given emergent technical issues on Boat 4, which having been resolved allowed Boat 4 to sail from Barrow in April 2020. Having seen programme delivery confidence grow in the first quarter of 2020, COVID-19 added risk to the Astute programme, however through commitment to the use of Personal Protective Equipment, working ways and personnel safety, any impacts to the remaining schedules are thought to be minimal. Reprioritisation of tasks in the early stages of the pandemic, plus changing shift patterns and a rigorous testing regime, safeguarded the individual projects. The most recent Infrastructure and Projects Authority review has concluded that delivery confidence has improved overall. |

This is primarily due to the following factors: The last Reported Whole Life Cost through the Defence Major Programmes Portfolio at Q2 2019/20 was £10,769.423m. There have been increases mainly driven by inclusion of Covid-19 schedule impact assessments across the remaining Boats offset by declaration of cost reductions through BAE Systems Project 2021 efficiency programme. |
