"The Type 26 Global Combat Ship will be a multi-mission warship designed for joint and multinational operations… and will play a major role in the defence of this country for many years."

Admiral Sir Mark Stanhope, GCB, OBE, ADC, DL, First Sea Lord (Retd), UK Royal Navy

"The Defence Mid-Point Rebalancing Review (DMRR) process was robust, analytically sound, and data-driven. It has been identified as an exemplar for other Government departments to follow."

Hon Dr Jonathan Coleman, Minister of Defence and Minister of State Services

"From previous experience with Catalyze, I’ve come to ‘trust the process’…which resulted in good healthy discussions amongst the range of stakeholders present and a product that we can use for our future business needs."
