Summary
The Integrated Procurement Model sets out how the MOD plans to deliver military capability faster in response to a more dangerous and rapidly changing threat environment. Published in February 2024, it is built around five main principles: a joined-up Defence-wide portfolio approach, stronger early checks and balances, prioritising exportability, empowering industrial innovation, and making spiral development the default. The document stresses delivering usable capability sooner, then improving it iteratively, rather than waiting for a perfect end state. It also calls for earlier industry engagement, better integration across Defence, and cultural change to make pace, transparency and smarter risk-taking central to procurement reform.
