A practical scenario
An incident reviewer is investigating an escalation gap. Align responder events with the policy and identify the separate observation that establishes service restoration.
Source material to consider
- Incident timeline
- On-call notes
- Escalation policy
Before designing a connection
Do not equate acknowledgement with recovery; use a separate observed restoration event.
