Issue Classification

Priority 1 – Service Unavailable

The highest priority call is “service unavailable’. That would be for circumstances where access to the platform for students, staff, learning designers becomes unavailable (e.g. the platform is unresponsive, or essential functionality such as the forum is not operational). In this scenario then a nominated person from the client to contact insendi. If the issue arises out of office hours then the contract should be through the out of hours service. Issues of this nature will be treated as the absolute highest priority at insendi. We will respond within 1 hour and provide regular updates (max every 2 hours) until the problem is resolved. If the root cause of the problem is within insendi control we will aim to get service restored within 4 hours.

Priority 2 – Critical Issues

This is the second-highest priority call and occurs where the platform remains available to staff, students and learning designers etc, but there is an issue which actively prevents effective teaching and learning in a live programme (e.g. Issues associated with assessment and submissions, data loss etc). These critical issues will be treated as a high priority. We will respond within 2 hours and provide regular updates (max every 4 hours) until the problem is resolved. If the root cause of the problem is within insendi control we will aim to get the critical issue addressed within 3 working days.

Priority 3 – Non-Critical Issues & Service Enhancements

Non-critical issues are those issues that don’t affect the availability of the platform or the delivery of effective teaching and learning in a live programme.

Service enhancements are proposed changes to the platform with the purpose of enhancing the functionality of the platform.

In the case of non-critical issues and service enhancements, insendi will aim to acknowledge these within 3 working days and will respond to these within a further 5 working days.
