Following its consultation on the DPS in March 2015, the SSRO has been working with industry and the MOD to develop a series of reporting templates to capture the cost breakdown for a number of different types of defence equipment. The first two DPS templates, for a submarine and sea system, were published alongside a set of principles on 23 June 2015. The third template, covering an ordnance system, was published on 30 September 2015.

The SSRO has now published the remaining DPS templates, which cover a number of equipment types including aircrafts, armoured vehicles and missile systems.

Additionally, we have made minor adjustments to the first three templates. Full details can be found on the DPS Guidance page.
