Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his planned timetable is for replacing the (a) Stores System 3 and (b) CRISP system.

Stores System 3 (SS3) and Comprehensive Royal Navy supply and Transport Service Inventory System Project (CRISP) will be replaced through the Base Inventory Warehouse Management System plus (BIWMS+) project which is due to deliver to Initial Operating Capability (IOC) not later than October 2024 (at 50% confidence) and Full Operating Capability (FOC) not later than June 2025 (at 50% confidence). This will bring all users onto a single pan-defence base inventory system and allow the retirement of SS3 and CRISP.
