Copilot summary
Generated from the live project data
The project is at risk: 58% done against 67% planned; official launch now forecast for 12 May 2027 instead of 31 March.
The main cause is the vendor’s integration-engineer gap and a nine-day Nafath test-environment outage, which pushed back the wave-1 and integration milestones.
Cost is broadly in control (CPI 0.96); EAC SAR 90.0M, SAR 3.6M over.
Needed: approve CR-2026-012 for extra integration capacity — it recovers 12 days.
