Response is not resolution
A response time describes when work begins, not when every issue will be resolved. Compare the actual service hours and incident priorities rather than treating every published number as directly equivalent.
Match coverage to business impact
Identify which services are critical and what happens if they stop. Occasional support may suit some environments; other businesses need monitoring, maintenance and an agreed on-call arrangement. Define who can report incidents and how.
Include reporting and handovers
Agree the scope of monitoring, updates, backup checks and documentation. A clear escalation path and named responsibilities help everyone act during an incident. DTNK offers Direct, Care, Business and Complete 24/7 support scopes.
