A draft plan for the Design, Build and Test phase of the programme has now been produced, this has been tested extensively with stakeholders and represents our current view of activities and timings for DBT. Once service providers have been appointed the plan will be reviewed and baselined.

It shows:

  • Commencement of the DBT phase in April 2019 following CSS provider contract signature.
  • The completion of CSS physical interface designs by July 2019 and industry party mobilisation by August 2019.
  • Commencement of System Integration Testing in April 2020 and the completion of the Full Physical Design Baseline in July 2020.
  • A planned go-live in Summer 2021 following a staged transition period with the enduring REC v2.0 being designated at the same time.
