24th of February 2026 - Major Incident -Data Tasks Stuck in pre-processing - RESOLVED

Fenergo are aware of an issue where Data Tasks are stuck in pre-processing and not progressing.

Detailed RCA

On 23 and 24 February 2026, some Policy Data tasks with Autocompletion enabled became stuck during processing and could not be opened by users. This prevented certain journeys from progressing.

The issue was caused by a newly introduced documents-related data source that was not fully enabled in one of our supporting services. When a recent update began calling this data source, the request failed and the task processing stopped.

A fix was deployed on 23 February and service was restored. On 24 February, an unrelated rollback of the same service unintentionally removed the fix, which caused the issue to reoccur. The correction was redeployed and affected journeys were remediated.

No data loss or data corruption occurred at any time. The impact was limited to tasks being stuck and unavailable until fixed.

Services Impacted

  • Journey Tasks

Root Cause Analysis
​

A newly developed documents-related data source was deployed but not fully enabled in the supporting service. This did not cause immediate issues because it was not yet being used.

Impact


Policy Data Tasks where autocompletion was enabled became stuck, halting journey progression

Corrective Actions

Improved Automated Testing

  • Add validation tests to ensure required document service capabilities are properly enabled before release.

Improve Autocompletion Resilience

  • Enhance the Autocompletion process to retrieve only the data sources actively required for evaluated conditions, reducing failure sensitivity.

Strengthen Release and Rollback Controls

  • Introduce clearer build compatibility signalling between dependent components.

Preliminary RCA - 25.Feb.2026

The issue was introduced by a deployment change made to mitigate an unrelated problem. That change exposed a defect in the data task autocomplete logic, which prevented certain tasks from completing automatically and caused some journeys to remain in a pending state.

The impact was limited to the autocomplete behavior. No data integrity issues or data loss occurred. The defect has been identified and resolved, and all affected journeys were remediated.
