Incident Prioritization

6


Before an incident can be prioritized, the impact and severity must be assessed.

Incident Service Level Targets

7

Priority Target

Response Resolve

3 - Low 90% - 24 hours 90% - 7 days*

2 - Medium 90% - 2 hours 90% - 4 hours

1 - High 95% - 15 minutes 90% - 2 hours

Although desirable, it is not always possible to resolve all incidents within the target time frame. For this reason, for SLA purposes, the success rate to resolve incidents by the target time frame is not expected to be 100%

Process Flow

Explanation of chart on following

pages

Process Flow - Identification

Service Desk will collect all available information about the issue.

The information will be logged. Before continuing the Service

Desk will verify the related service having the issue and correlate it with an existing service and SLA.

If the case is not actually an incident, but a service request, the Service Desk will continue the case under the Service Request Process guidelines.

After incident verification, Service Desk will attempt to establish incident severity and impact which define priority.

10

Process Flow – Analyze & Resolve

If this is a major incident, the Service Desk will notify senior management immediately.

Information on how to resolve many incidents is contained in the Knowledge Base within CRM. If the information is present, the Service Desk will attempt to resolve.

The Service Provider Group will continue the diagnosis until a solution or workaround is available and verify solution with customer.

If customer is satisfied, the Service Desk will close the case.
