Explanation

• Cost: Confidence in cost is lower than the benchmark because of potential cost effects of delay due to submarine availability affecting the HWT installation program.

• Requirement: System integration and testing processes have verified the platform modification requirements and those modifications apply to later Spiral baselines. The Spiral 1 baseline has also been accepted for Initial Operational Release. Therefore, the assessment score is marginally ahead of the benchmark score for this particular maturity gate.

• Technical   Difficulty:  Spiral 1 software had been granted Operational Release; Spiral 4 software is still under development. Although there is high confidence that all technical issues will be solved it is appropriate to retain the maturity assessment against this attribute at the lower level at this time.
