The need for a service desk function and incident management process is recognised and accepted. Procedures have been
standardised and documented, and informal training is occurring. It is, however, left to the individual to get training and follow the standards. Frequently asked questions (FAQs) and user guidelines are developed, but individuals must find them and may not follow them. Queries and incidents are tracked on a manual basis and individually monitored, but a formal reporting system does not exist.
The timely response to queries and incidents is not measured and incidents may go unresolved. Users have received clear
communications on where and how to report on problems and incidents
