Engagement of MOD, Navy and DES stakeholders and others as appropriate;. d. Regular reporting of delivery against the programme milestones;. e. Overseeing programme team activity, including Requirements Management and Project Controls; f. Production of all necessary programme plans and managed delivery of these documents Consultancy Value Statement: Actual Value Delivered Financial Value Statement: There is no quantifiable value, because this was an expenditure required to bridge a gapped post while recruitment was not an option due to the Navy Command recruitment freeze.
