Internal Document: AlphaTech Solutions
IT Support Master Standard Operating Procedures
This document defines the professional standards for the AlphaTech Support ecosystem. Our mission is "Zero-Gap Reporting"—ensuring every ticket is a perfect audit trail for billing, performance, and client satisfaction.
1. The Professional Workflow
We do not just "fix problems"; we manage expectations. Every ticket must move through this lifecycle to ensure management has the data needed for client billing and performance reviews.
Triage & SLA
The moment a ticket arrives, Assign Stars. This triggers the client's expectation. 0 stars = Low, 3 stars = Critical.
Acceptance
Dragging to "Accepted" is mandatory. This captures the "Response Date" timestamp used for management's Response Speed reports.
Resolution
Dragging to "Resolved" finalizes the record. This stops the billing clock and calculates total service hours for the client.
2. Commitment & Communication
| Priority Stars | Internal Level | SLA Commitment | Email Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| CRITICAL | 30 Minutes | "Categorized as CRITICAL (30m SLA)" | |
| HIGH | 24 Hours | "LEVEL 3 - HIGH (24h SLA)" | |
| MEDIUM | 48 Hours | "LEVEL 2 - MEDIUM (48h SLA)" | |
| LOW | 72 Hours | "LEVEL 1 - LOW (72h SLA)" |
Protocol: Use Template 86
Never type SLA times manually. Expand the composer, click "Templates," and select "AlphaTech: Ticket Accepted Acknowledgement." The system automatically detects your star selection and inserts the correct text.
3. Executive Management Dashboard
Our work is directly monitored by management (Ms. Mae) through the Reporting > Executive Reports section. The following metrics are live and audit-ready:
Technician Leaderboard
Ranks staff by total tickets resolved. Performance is tracked by "Resolved" stage moves.
SLA Success Rate
Measures percentage of tickets hitting their star-assigned deadlines.
Response Speed
Tracks the delay between "New" and "Accepted". High delays trigger management alerts.
Billing Matrix
Aggregates resolution hours per client for monthly invoicing.
4. Infrastructure Stability
To prevent the "Zombie Bot" error and ensure the Helpdesk bot remains professional:
