Martin,
If you are concerned about installing this tool on production server, you
can install this tool on a remote machine and you could analyze a production
server from a remote machine (as long as you can connect to target SQL
Server from remote machine)
SQL Best Practices Analyzer relies on the BPA Repository database, which is
a SQL Server database created during SQL BPA installation. You can have this
BPA repository database created on local SQL Server or a remote SQL Server.

SQL Best Practices Analyzer requires the following components to be
installed on the machine
. Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later
. Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1
