EU Exit is an all-of-government operation, and the Government wants to see the UK leave the EU with a deal.

However, the Department for Exiting the European Union (DExEU) has done detailed work with departments, including the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales on preparing for a No-Deal scenario.

DExEU has already published detailed analysis of the effect of leaving the EU without a deal on gov.uk:
