During 2018 Claims Portal will be making a series of seven Portal enhancements, which will be delivered in a single change termed as Release 6.
This work is necessary in order to deliver changes which are required to comply with general data protection regulation and to enhance the performance and governance of the system, prior to the implementation of Ministry of Justice (MoJ) whiplash reforms.
The system changes include:
 
The teams involved in delivering these changes (MIB and CRIF) will be taking an agile approach to developing these enhancements, which differs to previous Portal release projects and enables them to anticipate, test and implement changes in a shorter, flexible and more intuitive manner.
Work on the Release 6 development is scheduled to continue through to the summer, ready for A2A integration and then implementation of all seven changes in a single release during Q4.
We appreciate the impact changes to the Portal has on our Users, particularly the A2A community. We intend to provide as much information as possible at the earliest opportunity to help your teams prepare for the necessary changes. We will, of course provide further information and updates soon.
To ensure you receive updates as soon as they are posted, sign up / share this link to the Portal newsletter with your team members.
As with previous releases, feedback from a broad spectrum of Users is welcomed and is a key part of the project. To provide Release 6 feedback or get involved in operating User testing please contact claimsportal@mib.org.uk
