Incident and Problem Management. All incidents and alerts are logged, tracked and maintained through a ticketing system. Incidents are entered manually into the system and given a ticket number after a customer calls, emails, or faxes in their problem. The ticketed incident is classified, assigned a severity level and given to the appropriate engineering personnel for resolution. If the incident is unable to be resolved, it is escalated to QMS management for resolution. Recurring incidents and incidents where a workaround was applied are investigated further through the Problem Management analysis team. Detailed components of the work flow process are described in Quest’s “Incident Response”, “Client Call Process” and “Problem Management” manuals which are part of Quest’s on‐line documentation available for review at any time by personnel. Quest’s internal incident response process consists of the following phases. Once the appropriate preparative steps have been taken, the Incident Response Process consists of a six‐phase cycle. • Preparative • Prevention • Identification • Containment • Eradicate • Recovery • Follow‐up
Incident and Problem Management. The objective of Incident Management is to restore normal service operation as quickly as possible and to minimise the impact on business operations resulting from any service disruptions, thus ensuring that optimal and agreed levels of service quality and availability are maintained. The process covers any Incident, external or internal, which impacts directly or indirectly on the Services provided by the Service Provider. The objective of Problem Management is to minimise adverse business impact by preventing potential Incidents from occurring.
