Kestrel
The Migration Planning and Management Tool (MPMT), also known as Kestrel, is built around a role-based framework to support the planning, management, and reporting of MHHS migration data. The tool ensures that all market participants can access the planning functionality and insights they need whilst safeguarding commercially sensitive information.
You can access the Kestrel tool via the link below, which opens in a new window:
The MHHS Programme has published a guidance document to support participants in navigating Kestrel, which you can view below:

User Access & Management
Participants who have been nominated as Kestrel users should already have access through an active MHHS account.
If you don't have this, please request this by emailing the Programme Party Coordinator (PPC) team at PPC@mhhsprogramme.co.uk
Please note: Any changes to user access must be coordinated through your organisation's designated User Manager, as identified in the Programme Participant Information Request (PPIR) that was issued in April 2025.
To request additions or removals, please email the Kestrel team at Kestrel@mhhsprogramme.co.uk with the subject line formatted as follows:

For example: ABCD - Supplier - New User Request
Migration drop-in sessions
The Migration team hosted two online drop-in sessions on 16 and 28 May 2025.
The focus of these sessions was to support Suppliers with the submission process and the Kestrel tool.
These sessions included a general Q&A on this latest submission round, Kestrel usage and an overview of the updated validation rules.
You can view the recordings from both sessions on the MHHS Webinars & Open Days page of this website.
We will hold a couple more drop-in sessions during June 2025, and we're collating a Q&A document to incorporate all questions asked during these sessions. We'll let you know when this is available.
If you have any questions, please email Migration@mhhsprogramme.co.uk
