Post Design Services (PDS) and Capability Upgrades Type 45 Power Improvement Project BMT, BAE Systems and Cammell Laird are currently working as an alliance team appointed by UK MoD to deliver its Type 45 Power Improvement Project (PIP). This project will improve resilience in the Royal Navy’s Type 45 Destroyer power and propulsion system by replacing the existing two diesel generators, fitting an additional diesel generator and modifying the high voltage system on each ship. The contract comprises the major procurement, design and integration of the solution, as well as the physical installation and replacement of equipment. BMT is responsible for completing the majority of the design work that will be passed to Cammell Laird for embodiment into the platform.
