IT Support Contract Service Level Agreement
IT SLA Expectations, Service Request Prioritisation and Response Guidelines
Under your IT Support contract our IT Support Help Desk will use the following SLA guidelines when prioritising tickets and strive to begin working on them within the stated response time in the table.
777 Networks is one of the few companies to provide a service level agreement which contains targets not just for first response but also issue resolution goals.
In the real world we beat our targets for resolving issues in 96% of cases – the table below is designed to give a benchmark for reporting statistics, goals and user expectations setting.
The actual response time may vary depending on the volume of reported tickets, the availability of resources, and the thoroughness of the information provided. If a ticket cannot be resolved in the expected timeframe, the customer will be notified and provided with a revised estimated time of completion.
Escalation requests are considered on a case‐by‐case basis.
