DCA (RAG) Amber/Red
DCA text: The Infrastructure Project Authority's Delivery Confidence Assessment rating is Amber/red.This is primarily due to the following factors: Following approval of the Outline Business Case in Q4 2020, the main contracts were placed for Block 1 Mission Systems. These are due to reach initial operating capability in 2024 and are on track to do so. At the end of 2020, the Senior Responsible Owner-ship of Mine Countermeasure and Hydrographic Craft Capability was transferred to the new Navy Acquisition Directorate. The Senior Responsible Owner is being supported on a "best efforts" basis by the Navy Equipment and Systems Portfolio Management Office organisation pending approval to recruit a Programme Management Team to support this programme. The risk to programme delivery has thus increased owing to limitations in the capacity to mature programme controls and governance.
