We’re pleased to confirm a phased Navigate Go Live today (Tuesday 30 April). 

Our commitment to resolving critical issues before making Navigate live to customers meant that we undertook additional testing overnight. We have made good progress and we would like to thank customers for their patience while we worked through those issues.  

We’re continuing our cautious approach and are pleased to confirm that Navigate will Go Live at 17:00 Tuesday 30 April. Overnight we will configure the platform so that customers can start submitting SFTP files from 06:00 on Wednesday. Navigate will then begin the process of uploading the changes to MID records since 17:00 on Friday into Navigate,which now contains 4.1 billion records from over 100 firms in the motor insurance market.

We will monitor those submissions to ensure they are successful.  

As you will appreciate, this will take some time to process so we will open Navigate’s portal enquiry service once all data has been loaded and validation is complete. We'll let you know when this service is available. 

Further activities for Wednesday 01 May (subject to further testing): 

We will continue to closely monitor all activity over the coming days.    

We’d like to thank customers for their continued support as we launch a new era for our data services for insurers, the police and the public.
