Following successful trial inspections, OCIMF can announce the countdown to the release of the production edition of SIRE 2.0 has begun.

Due to the significance of this change from VIQ7 to SIRE 2.0, OCIMF will not limit the notice to the standard 90-day window. The SIRE 2.0 integrator API is now available. The SIRE 2.0 integrator API is self-documenting and acts as its own test harness.

Inspection booking services

There are only minimal changes in this version of the SIRE 2.0 integrator API as most recent system extensions have had no impact upon the API. Full details of what changes have been made are documented in the associated release notes available here.

Also in this release, the pre-existing inspection booking services have been updated to accommodate SIRE 2.0 inspection bookings and the associated compliance matrix for inspector selection. The integration environment for the existing SIRE web services is available here and these changes are also detailed in the release notes. OCIMF continues to support integrating companies with their understanding of these changes by running integration workshops.
