In May, 2023, The Board approved allocation of up to $20,000 from reserve funding to pay IT developers to develop a new BJCP IT system. Developers will work under the direction of Assistant IT Director Andres Torres. This allocation supersedes the allocation approved on 08/26/2022, of which no funds were spent as the prior vendor withdrew. Approved 10-0.
The New Database is in Development!
Some bulletpoints from IT about the progress of the new system:
- Legacy Importer is 90% there, we’re still thinking about the current structure.
- The Judge Record Page is 80% there
- The Voting system is 90% there
- Ordering kits and badges is still something to do
- Competition registration and reporting is still something to do
We’re aiming to automate 100% of the tasks that can be automated:
- Points assignment after a competition report
- Competition registration and show up on the page
- Rank granting
