The Test and Evaluation (T&E) Transformation Programme will conclude its first phase in March 2025. The focus of the second phase will be establishing the foundations of a modern T&E enterprise that is fit for the future, as set out in the Ministry of Defence’s (MOD) recently published paper on the future of T&E:

Test and Evaluation (T&E): Future Advantage Through Evaluation (FATE) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

The T&E Transformation programme is currently collecting feedback from the Front Line Commands, defence industry and other organisations to inform the detailed design of its second phase, which is planned to commence in April 2025 subject to internal MOD approval.
