| Description: | The New Medium Helicopter programme intends to consolidate elements of Defence's disparate fleet of medium lift helicopters from four platform types to one, through the procurement of a new helicopter-type. |
| DCA (RAG) | Amber |
| DCA text: | Compared to financial year 20/21-Q4, the IPA's DCA rating remained at Amber. This is primarily due to the following factors: The supporting evidence and detail that demonstrates the most suitable capability for Defence, providing value for money, and also can be delivered within expected timescales is being developed. Work is at an advanced stage to confirm these aspects, which once agreed will allow a revised delivery confidence assessment to be made. |
| Start date | 2021-04-30 |
| End date | 2028-07-07 |
| Schedule text | Compared to 2021-Q4 the project end-date decreased from 31 Dec 2036 to 07 Jul 2028 This is primarily due to the following factors: The programme end-date has aligned with Full Operating Capability. There have been no changes to the New Medium Helicopter key milestones since the last Annual Report on Major Projects. |
| Baseline | £8.00m |
| Forecast | £5.40m |
| Variance | -37.00% |
| Variance text: | The budget variance exceeds 5%. Some modest investment has been made to initiate this programme. The business cases that will set out the required level of investment and budgetary requirements are being developed at pace. |
| Whole Life Cost | £1,172.00m |
| WLCost text: | The projects Baseline Whole Life Cost is 1172.00 (£m). This is primarily due to the following factors: The programme's Whole Life Cost, under current assumptions, is expected to be circa £2132.749M until the New Medium Helicopter's nominal out-of-service date of 2040. This figure includes £1172M captured as the programme's 10 year provision that includes initial aircraft procurement and initial support equipment, and subsequent through-life support to 2040. This assessment is consistent with the 2021 Annual Report on Major Projects. |
