Final preparations for Launch Weekend

We're continuing to assess our readiness but are pushing forward towards our Launch Weekend ahead of Navigate Go Live for MID users on 29 April. 

Every step of the way over the past two years, we’ve supported customers prepare for their move to Navigate. So, we’re delighted to have exceeded our customer readiness criteria to allow us to move forward towards Go Live. Customers representing 98% of the market are now fully registered and tested and only a few customers have not completed this. 

We’re also satisfied that our police partners and other key stakeholders are prepared for their move to Navigate. 

We’ll now make our very final preparations for Launch Weekend that begins on Friday 26 April and runs until Sunday 28 April. During the weekend we’ll conduct the final migration of data from the MID into Navigate. Once that migration is complete, we’ll make extensive and thorough checks to ensure Navigate is working properly ahead of launch to customers at 8am on 29 April.  

In the event of unanticipated issues over Launch Weekend we’ll implement our plan to revert to the MID while these are resolved. 

Throughout our Launch Weekend, we’ll be sharing all customer updates on our dedicated microsite page that will be kept regularly updated. 

We’re hosting a virtual Q&A session on Launch Weekend on Wednesday 24 April from 10-12. Sign up here
