DCA text: The Infrastructure Project Authority's Delivery Confidence Assessment rating is Amber/red.This is primarily due to the following factors: Delivery Confidence is Amber-Red due to the likelihood of Programme cost exceeding its March 2020 budget allocation following development of more detailed plans for the new Science Hub. A new Programme Business Case, informed by a more comprehensive view of the change requirement, will form the basis for a re-baseline of cost, benefits and schedule. IPA validated this as a credible pathway to Green in December 2020.
