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
DCA text: Compared to financial year 20/21-Q4, the IPA's DCA rating increased from Amber/Red to Amber. This is primarily due to the following factors: The removal of the incremental Amber/Red and Amber/Green rating. Despite continued COVID-19 challenges, the Astute build programme has achieved its major build and commissioning milestones though this financial year, and therefore delivery confidence of Amber is maintained. HMS AUDACIOUS commissioned, HMS ANSON is afloat, HMS AGEMEMNON and HMS AGINCOURT are being fitted out. However, the programme still carries schedule risk because of workload demands and access to the limited number of Suitably Qualified and Experienced Personnel that is not limited to Defence but also Industry and the wider Nuclear Sector.
