Call Priorities
To provide consistency to all Customer’s and ensure focus on the most critical items, our Customer Success team
categorizes tickets using a 4 category priority ranking:
o 1 – Critical
o 2 - High
o 3 – Medium
o 4- Low
The criteria used to establish a call priority are as follows:
Priority Level Description Description
1 Critical Mission critical Customer business process(s) unable to function.
The System is not functioning and there is no workaround that is acceptable to the
Customer, thereby preventing a department or workgroup from performing a mission
critical business function(s).
• System Down (Software Application, Hardware, Operating System, Database)
• Program errors without workarounds
• Error messages preventing data integration and update
• Performance issues of severe nature impacting critical processes
• Security Issues
Note: in most cases issues affecting a test environment only will not be considered P1
2 High Significant impact to Mission critical Customer business process(s)
A major problem impedes the ability to perform mission critical business
function(s) due to major functionality not working. A temporary work - around that is
acceptable to the Customer is available.
• System errors that have workarounds
• Calculation errors impacting less than one-third of records
• Report calculation issues
• Performance issues not impacting critical processes
• Workstation connectivity issues (Workstation specific)
3 Medium Minor function(s) not working causing non-critical work to back up
• Training questions, how to, or implementation of new processes
• Usability Issues
• Issues where a workaround is available for a large majority of cases
4 Low Inconvenience
The System is causing a minor disruption in the way tasks are performed, but does not
stop workflow. Able to accomplish all functions, but not as efficiently as normal. May
include cosmetic Issues.
• Aesthetic issues
• Questions on documentation
Confidential and Proprietary - Univerus Inc. Page 24 of 26
Tickets identified as enhancements will be closed in accordance with our roadmap management process and migrated to
our product management tool. The Customer will retain visibility of the submitted product feature request via the self
service idea portal.
Customer Support Representatives
To provide the best levels of service the Customer will nominate one or more staff members as the support
representatives for the MAIS products. This may be split by business area, geographic location or other method
appropriate for the customer. The MAIS team and the Customer representatives will provide the primary point of contact
for both sides within the support relationship.
Communication
Our Customer Success team works hand in hand with your business designated support representative(s) to ensure a
seamless experience and speedy resolution of ticketed support items. Tickets may be submitted via email, phone or via our
online support management portal.
A support ticket must be created in order for the team to provide assistance. Should the customer representative be
unable to perform the ticket submission due to an outage at the Customer location our staff will create the ticket for you.
The use of our Customer Success system allows us to track the full lifecycle of your customer interaction with our team. It
helps us measure our activities so we can properly forecast our staffing requirements in addition to providing a health
indicator of the customer usage of the system.
To expedite the interaction with our Customer Success team and provide the best levels of service we advise the Customer
Representative to note the following:
• Your call should contain
o The nature of issue e.g. Report A is showing inaccurate data
o A detailed description of your inquiry or issue including all pertinent information
o Screenshots of the issue are highly recommended and greatly increase response accuracy and time
Tickets may be submitted via email to aid in the routing of tickets submitted to the Customer Representative and ease the
inclusion of screenshots.
Tickets are received into the Customer Success team queue and prioritized based on the SLA’s outlined in this document.
As the support representative assigned to your call investigates your issue, you will be notified of status updates, actions
and resolution plan via the support call system. If we require additional information, you will be contacted by the assigned
support representative to supply the information required.
All correspondence and actions associated with your call will be tracked against your call in our support database. At any
time, you may log onto our website to see the status of your call.
Once your issue has been resolved, the call will be set to “confirm resolution” status. You will then have time to evaluate
the resolution and provide feedback. Once you are satisfied that the issue has been addressed, you will then close the call.
Confidential and Proprietary - Univerus Inc. Page 25 of 26
We will do our best to provide you with adequate time to evaluate the resolution. However, we will then close a ticket if
we do not receive any feedback for an extended period of time. You will always be notified of a pending or actual call
closure. You will have the option of re-opening the ticket if needed.
Once your call has been closed, you will receive an automated notification by email that your call has been closed. This
email will contain the entire event history of the call from the time the call was created and leading up to the resolution of
the call. You also have the option of viewing both your open and closed calls, if available to you, via our website.
If your issue needs to be escalated to a development resource or programmer for resolution, your issue will be forwarded
to our development team. Your support call will remain open until our development team provides a response. If a
development item opens, you will be provided with a development tracking number upon request. Issues escalated to
development will be scheduled for resolution and may not be resolved immediately depending on the nature and
complexity of the issue.
You may contact the support department at your convenience for a status update on your development issues, or log onto
our website to view your issues online.
