Risk Think

My apologies for the gap in updates.  We have been working diligently on a few fronts.  We had hoped to have BPC RiskManager V6.2.6 released a week or two ago, but a variety of factors have delayed us.  We have decided to release at least one more BETA (BETA7) because a number of additional features have been added to the RiskManager parts and we have spent more time on updates to BPC SurveyManager than originally intended. 

It is an ongoing debate internally how much of the compliance support should be delivered through survey manager (which in theory could do most of it) and how much through the RiskManager client.  So far we are essentially doing both – we are adding features and tags to the SurveyManager library to support compliance tables for those that will decide to run with a heavy compliance survey focus and adding the all the compliance capabilities to the main RiskManager client.  So it is taking longer than we would like.

The other major project is a detailed documentation of the bowels of the SurveyManager engine and posting of the same on the riskwiki, so you may have noticed that there are lots of changes happening there as we progressively document the huge tag and property lists directly from the code base.  This is also seeing a cleanup of some of the SurveyManager code, and inevitably addition of even more features.

The new SurveyManager library has been deployed into our live servers so those undertaking surveys are actually using the updated system.  We have not yet deployed it to off site clients, but will include it in the next Beta release.

We hope to have a Beta7 out before Christmas… so watch this space.
