ABSTRACT

 

What is the Avaya GSS Management Escalation Activity (MEA) Process?
The GSS Management Escalation Activity (MEA) Process provides a means to engage
our management team to help manage your open service request issue with the
appropriate technical resources and the proper sense of urgency.  If you are
experiencing a Total Service Outage, log in and use the red Report Service
Outage button on the Dashboard or Service Requests page to engage emergency
services.

 

 


BODY

 
What to expect when an MEA is created on your open Service Request (SR):
 
1.     The MEA will be assigned to your SR owner’s Manager, or their designated
backup.
2.     The assigned Manager will contact the MEA requestor that was entered as
the contact of the MEA.  Our objective is to respond in 1 hour or less to
address the issue
 
To create the MEA on the web at support.avaya.com
 
1.     From the list of open Service Requests on your Dashboard at
https://support.avaya.com, from the Service Requests page or from an Open SR
select the  button to launch the Add an Update dialog


 
2.     From the Add an Update screen, select Management Engagement Request radio
button

 
3.     Use the pull-down menu to select the "Reason" that the Service Request
needs a management escalation

 
4.   Complete the Circumstances including the criteria for closing the
Escalation and define the Business Impact

 
5.   Click on the Change Contact link if your contact details are not displayed
in the Person to be Contacted section.  
 * You are limited to selecting a user that is an active contact on the Sold-to
   in Siebel.  
 * Contact the Company or Sold To Administrator(s) to have users assigned to the
   Sold-to.  
 * For Sold-to's with a large number of contacts, use the "Refine your search:"
   option to filter the contact by Email or Name (since you are searching within
   a specific sold to, all of the addresses will be the same).  Select the
   spyglass to execute the search.  Select the Contact from the list by clicking
   on it.   

 
 
6.     Click SUBMIT to create the Management Escalation
 
7.    You will be notified of a successful escalation:  
 

 
 
8.     On your Dashboard / SR list, you will see that the Service Request has
moved from Escalate to Escalated
 

 
9.  At times, there may be instances where additional Management attention is
urgently needed on an already escalated SR, but you cannot contact the manager
who owns your escalation.  In those instances, you may Re-Escalate your Service
Request. You may do that by first selecting the Escalated icon shown in
instruction 8, above.  The following screen will appear, showing the details on
your MEA.

 
 
10.  You may then click the Re-Escalate icon.  This will initiate an attempt to
contact the manager who owns your MEA, and if not immediately available, to
re-assign your MEA to an available manager.  That re-escalation will be handled
with the urgency that is given to an initial escalation.
 
 
NOTE:  
 * If you are experiencing a Total Service Outage, log in and use the red Total
   Service Outage button on the Dashboard or Service Requests page to engage
   emergency services.  
 * Avaya Associates must have an active Siebel login to use the MEA feature.
