1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. PURPOSE
The primary goal of the Incident Management process is to restore normal service operation as quickly as possible and minimize the adverse impact on business operations, thus ensuring that the best possible levels of service quality and availability are maintained. Normal service operation is defined as service operation within service level agreement (SLA) limits. The Incident Management process also handles Service Requests for standard services that are agreed to be provided under SLAs.
1.2. SCOPE
The scope of the Incident Management process includes a standard set of processes, procedures, responsibilities and metrics that are utilized by all OAAIS services, applications, systems and network support teams.
1.3. DEFINITIONS
An incident is any event which is not part of the standard operation of a service and which causes, or may cause an interruption to, or a reduction in the quality of that service. A service request is a request from a user for support, delivery, information, advice or documentation, not being a failure in the IT infrastructure. A Request for Change (RFC) is required for non-standard services that necessitate a change in the IT infrastructure and is addressed through the Change Management process. The Incident Management process includes Incident Acceptance and Recording, Classification and Initial Support, Matching, Investigation and Diagnosis, Resolution and Recovery, Closure, and Progress Monitoring and Reporting
