IBM has announced the withdrawal of the 5770-BR1 product ( https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/announcements/eos-eom-non-expiring-brms-cics-msp ). Because of this, there are currently no plans to bring the interface to the 5770-BR1 product.
However, while it was not possible to bring the web interface to the BR1 product, the BRMS team did work to bring the SQL services to both BR1 and BR2 to provide the ability to use SQL or other tools that can integrate with SQL for managing BRMS. This enables you to create similar types of dashboards as those that are available in the new BRMS web interface using other tools.
More information on the SQL services are available on the following page: https://helpsystemswiki.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IWT/pages/2208628737/BRMS+User+Interface+Strategy

Hello,
why this new web interface has been developed only for the 5770-BR2 product and not for 5770-BR1 a well ? Any plans, estimation when similar functionality will be developed for 5770-BR1 as well ?
Thank you,
Nikos

I'm excited to share that on June 28th, the BRMS team released a new web interface for the IBM 5770-BR2 BRMS product. This web interface lets you see information about systems in your BRMS network with an initial focus on monitoring your BRMS environment and easily switching between systems in your BRMS network. This enables administrators to easily view information from all systems within the BRMS network from a single interface.
This interface is available via a 5770-BR2 PTF. Additional information may be found on the BRMS documentation site.
When the heritage navigator was withdrawn, the BRMS team focused on delivering capabilities and SQL services centered around functionality in the heritage navigator. This focus was to ensure the quickest delivery of value and ensure that no functionality was lost. As part of this, the team delivered 47 SQL services. These services served both to provide capabilities to BRMS users and administrators and to serve as the foundation for the new BRMS web interface.
The team will continue to use feedback to drive the future direction of the BRMS product, including BRMS web interface.

Hi Rohit,
Yes, it's being developed but seems like there were some challenges so it is taking awhile. Development of the BRMS product is handled by Fortra. There is some info about the strategic direction provided here:
https://helpsystemswiki.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IWT/pages/2208628737/BRMS+User+Interface+Strategy
Ultimately, it isn't ready yet, and this has been in the works for a few years already it seems.

Hello Everyone,
I want to know if there will be a BRMS GUI in the future enhancement in IBM Navigator for i.? It might be interesting to have it as customers are looking forward to it. There used to be a one in heritage navigator but it is not yet available on new IBM Navigator for i. I am hearing it from last 2 years that it is coming but no info yet.
Thanks,
