Issue Severity Clause Samples

The Issue Severity clause defines how problems or defects are categorized based on their impact or urgency. Typically, it establishes a tiered system—such as critical, major, or minor—so that each issue is assigned a severity level according to predefined criteria. This classification helps prioritize responses and resolutions, ensuring that the most serious issues are addressed first and resources are allocated efficiently.
