This is primarily due to the following factors.Over the last quarter the Programme has delivered against plan to support the secondary legislation programme, reviewed the business cases in line with conditions set by HMT and prepared for their submission for formal approval. The programme has also initiated delivery, through the digital development required to establish the public and internal systems and tools to operate BSR and the start of operational recruitment to establish the teams required to staff the BSR functions. |
| Baseline | £32.02m |
| Forecast | £21.99m |
| Variance | -31.00% |
| Variance text: | The bulk of the R-DEL variance relates to staff-related costs and reflects lower than expected staff costs across both payroll and contractors due to recruitment delays and a tight supply position in the specialist contractor market. Additional underspends are due to delayed engagement of the Digital Delivery partner, revisions to Insight and Communications activity plans and lower than expected training and recruitment costs. The C-DEL underspend is due to delayed BETA activity and lower than expected IT hardware investment. |
| Whole Life Cost | £1,023.00m |
| WLCost text: | Compared to financial year 21/22-Q4, the project's departmental-agree Whole Life Cost at 22/23-Q4 decreased from 1032m. to 1023m. This is primarily due to the following factors.The baseline whole life costs have marginally reduced as a result of the baseline now reflecting expenditure figures as per the approved OBC but excluding optimism bias solely in year 22/23 as per IPA advice to ensure consistent in-year reporting (the 21/22 Q4 figures will have included optimism bias for 22/23). It is important to note that the FBC, currently under assurance checks, indicates a significant reduction to whole life costs as optimism bias assumptions are revised downwards. |
