This FOI release is a February 2026 independent Go Live Readiness Assessment, prepared by CTO Consulting, of the Simplified Targeting and Enhanced Processing Systems Program (STEPS) ICCP Version 1 pilot. It was produced to inform the STEPS Program Implementation Board's go/no-go decision for a 24 February 2026 release limited to two feeds. It is not a biosecurity, pest or disease document. The assessment rates Go Live as feasible but at risk, citing late delivery of work items, incomplete non-functional testing, unclear scope traceability and a compressed regression testing window. Six recommendations are made, covering the test summary report, release scope statement, an NFR test plan, a daily release plan and a post-release as-built review. Technical Change Management processes were rated as well established.
