We will publish the results of our IAP on 31 January 2019. During the IAP Ofwat will assess the quality, ambition and innovation of these plans across 9 test areas and based on this assessment, will categorise plans into one of four categories: exceptional; fast track; slow track; and significant scrutiny. The 9 test areas we will assess are: - Engaging customers: - Addressing affordability and vulnerability; - Delivering outcomes for customers; - Securing long term resilience; - Targeted controls, markets and innovation; - Securing cost efficiency; - Aligning risk and return; - Accounting for past delivery; and - Securing confidence and assurance. You will be part of the team responsible for testing the quality, ambition and innovation of company business plans in test areas 1, 2 and 3 from the list above. More information on what we will be assessing in these test areas can be found in Appendix to chapter 14 of our final PR19 methodology.
