C.6 MPRG timing is flexible, and the MPRG may meet at any time should a project become 'of concern.' However projects will generally be reviewed at the following key stages:
• Strategic Outline Business Case stage
• Outline Business Case Stage - before the project goes to tender
• Full Business Case Stage - following receipt of bids but before award of the contract, or in the case of competitive dialogue, before close of dialogue.
C.7 Once a project has been reviewed at any stage by MPRG, the MPRG Panel will decide if and when the project should return to MPRG.
C.8 MPRG may also consider Departmental portfolios of projects and/or Departmental programmes.
