March 2026
Rating: The NISTA/SRO Delivery Confidence Assessment (DCA) rating at 25/26-Q4 is AMBER. This is due to the following factors. 1. The Mobile Fires Platform (MFP) Project aims to deliver a Minimal Deployable Capability (MDC) to the British Army by the end of the decade. This time frame leads to some MDC delivery risks reflected by the AMBER assessment. 2. Risks have appropriate mitigation plans and senior-level support for escalation and resolution.
Schedule: The programme's end date at 25/26-Q4 remains undetermined. The MFP programme remains on track to deliver a Minimal Deployable Capability to the British Army by the end of the decade.
Cost: Exempt under Section 43 - Commercial interests
