A list of the main analytical models used by BEIS to support policies as of 30 March 2022.

In October 2012, Sir Bob Kerslake and Sir Jeremy Heywood commissioned a review of the quality assurance of analytical models that inform policy across government. The review was led by Sir Nick Macpherson, Permanent Secretary at the Treasury. He published his Review of quality assurance of government models in March 2013. The Aqua Book published in 2015 provided high level guidance to meet the Macpherson Review Recommendations.

Recommendation 4 of the review asked departments to make a list of their business critical models publicly available - to encourage good practice in their quality assurance. In 2022 the National Audit Office report Financial Modelling in Government re-emphasised the importance of these lists.
