Typically an SLA is drawn up detailing availability, resilience, redundancy and support arrangements and this is then managed during the lifetime of the system.
See below for standard response times within LHIS (which may differ if required). When calls are logged with our service desk we grade them with severities depending on the nature of the issue. The service desk operates according to ITIL change management procedures. Each severity has a standard response time as shown below. These standards are negotiable if required to meet customer needs, however customers should note this may have an impact on the service price.
