Defence Equipment & Support annual report and accounts 2023 to 2024

Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) annual report and accounts for the year ending 31 March 2024.

▤ Verbatim text from source document

The report has been laid before Parliament following certification by the Comptroller and Auditor General.

This is the tenth annual report and accounts for DE&S since its launch as a Bespoke Trading Entity (now Executive Agency) in April 2014. The document reflects the operating costs of DE&S, with the costs of the equipment programme being captured separately in the MOD annual report and accounts.

For the seventh year running, DE&S has secured an unqualified audit opinion from the National Audit Office, underlining the continuing efforts to ensure robust processes, management systems and capability as DE&S delivers the programme of work.
