When we launched the 2019 MSP 501 earlier this month, we announced a new functionality feature that will pre-populate certain fields from last year’s survey for 2018 applicants that have not opted out of marketing communications. We expected those company-specific URLs to be ready to send to you this week, and we communicated that to you.
  
Good news? That hasn’t changed. Bad news? There’s been a delay of a couple of days.
  
It seems we weren’t quite prepared for the crazy increase in privacy regulations from last year to this year. (Thanks, GDPR.) Everyone wants to make double sure we cross the T’s and dot the I’s. While having to admit we’ve hit a snag here is slightly embarrassing, at the same time we’re reassured to know this is one group that understands regulatory headaches.

This program will deploy next week, and we’ll send an update when it does. In the meantime, if you’re rarin’ to go and don’t want to wait, email MSP501@knect365.com and ask for a copy of last year’s submission. We’ll get it to you just as soon as we can.
  
Sincere apologies from me and the entire MSP 501 team for this faulty communication. I mean, what a tease, right? Thanks for your patience and understanding! We can’t wait to see your submissions.

Best,
Kris Blackmon
Sr. Editor – MSP 501
