Hurricane Irma impact on RATA Associates' business operations

Added on September 7, 2017

The forecast track for major Hurricane Irma is showing that the eye will pass very close if not directly over the RATA facility in Longwood, FL. While our building is built to hurricane standards and we have redundant systems for power, internet connectivity may go down and be down for some time. This would affect Comply auto-updates as well as Comply registration services. During any outage, files which require geocoding can be uploaded to the RATA support website (support.rataassociates.com). This server is co-located outside of Florida and will be unaffected by the hurricane. Files will be processed and returned via the support website until any infrastructure outages are resolved at our Longwood facility. In preparation of the impact Irma may have on our facility, we will be closing…

FFIEC Releases 2017 Demographic Data based on 2015 ACS

Added on July 27, 2017

RATA Associates is pleased to announce that the 2017 FFIEC demographic data that is now based on the 2015 ACS is now available for all RATA Clients. If you use Auto-Updates to keep your system data up to date, you should see the new data available the next time you log in to Comply. If you don't use Auto-Updates the data will be available on the RATA Support Site to download and import. Comply links the demographics to the geocoding in the system so once you update your system all new reports and views of the data are retroactive for the entire year. For those of you using our QuickPoint Web Service (QPWS) to geocode applications real-time in your LOS systems, you will only receive the new demographics from today forward since they are sent at the time the geocode is assigned. Again, this…
