Problem Management Policy.

Objectives

This document is intended to define and describe a consistent Problem Management process that aims to improve Beautiful.AI service quality by providing an approach to investigate, analyze, document, and remove causes of incidents that occur in Beautiful.AI production systems.

The objectives of the Beautiful.AI Problem Management process are to: 

  • Diagnose the root cause of incidents and determine the permanent solution to those problems to prevent recurrence 
  • Maintain information about problems, appropriate workarounds, and resolutions to reduce the number and impact of incidents over time 
  • Conduct problem reviews to determine what could be done better in the future 
  • Proactively identify and solve problems to improve IT service quality and prevent potential incidents from occurring

Definitions

Problem Management: Process that investigates the cause of incidents and, wherever possible, implements a permanent solution to prevent recurrence. Until a permanent resolution is applied, the process will attempt to provide a workaround to enable the service to be restored and the incident(s) to be resolved.

Problem: A cause of one or more incidents. The cause is not usually known at the time a problem record is created, and the Problem Management process is responsible for further investigation.

Reactive Problem Management: Resolving problems in response to one or more active (opened) incidents.

Proactive Problem Management: Identifying problems based on periodic scheduled reviews and an analysis of closed incident patterns. 

Retro Problem Record: If for any reason an Emergency change is implemented without a related Jira incident record, then the Beautiful.AI is required to create a problem record after IT services are restored. The retro problem record will ensure a root cause analysis is completed for historical reference, management review and communication.

Incident Management: The process responsible for managing the lifecycle of all incidents. Ensures that normal service operation is restored as quickly as possible (often by means of a temporary workaround).

Incident: Implies something is broken or functioning in a degraded manner. Inquiry from a user to fix something that is broken, not working or needs repair. Also known as a break/fix issue.

Workaround: A workaround is a temporary solution to restore service to normal operation while the underlying issue is being investigated. The workaround does not resolve the problem, it resolves the incident.

Known Error: The root cause of the problem is established, and the affected configuration item (CI) is identified. A temporary workaround/permanent fix may or may not exist.

Root Cause Analysis (RCA): The activity that identifies the root cause of a problem.

Problem Report: An executive summary report often used when internal or external stakeholders are requesting a summary report containing the details of the problem. 

Request for Change (RFC): A request for change is a submitted request Jira for a proposed change to be made to fix the problem.

Scope

The scope of Problem Management will include diagnosis of the root cause of incidents taking the necessary action in relationship with other IT processes (Incident Management and Change Management) to identify errors, provide workarounds to those errors, thus being able to remove errors from Beautiful.AI production systems.

Roles and Responsibilities

Problem Manager – Beautiful.AI department manager accountable for the problem record resolution assigned to their department. The Problem Manager will be required to review and approve the completed root cause analysis within the problem record before the problem record can be closed. 

Problem Owner – The Beautiful.AI resource responsible for creating a problem record within the Service Management application (Jira) after determining an incident or trend of incidents requires a problem record. 

The Problem Owner responsibilities include:

  • Record any activity performed in the problem record work notes 
  • If individuals from multiple departments are involved in researching the problem, coordinate the investigation efforts 
  • If a workaround is identified, document the workaround in the problem record and inform the user(s) affected by the incident (if appropriate) 
  • If a known error is identified, document the known error in the problem record 
  • If there is business justification for fixing the known error, initiate the Beautiful.AI Change Management process

Policy

  • All problems must be recorded in Jira if justified by incident assignees or Beautiful.AI departments that deem a problem record is required.
  • Only the Problem Owner or Problem Manager can close a problem record. 
  • If a problem will be fixed through a change, the change record (in Jira) must be related with the problem record.
  • Any work conducted for a problem, must be recorded in the work notes section of the problem record (in Jira) If an incident is related to a problem, the incident record must be related to the problem record.
  • Opened incident records cannot be related to closed problems.

Process

Detection and Logging

  • Reactive and Proactive Problem Management activities using Incident Management

Investigation and Diagnosis

  • Analyzing the incidents (active (opened) or closed) that led to the problem

Identifying a Workaround

  • Identifying a workaround to enable the Beautiful.AI address active (opened) incidents and restore normal service while the problem is being investigated.

Identifying a Root Cause and Raising a Known Error Record

  • Identifying a root cause (known error) of the problem and raising the problem record as a known error.

Resolution/Closure

  1. Problem resolution resolves the underlying cause of the set of incidents and prevents those incidents from recurring. Some resolutions may require the Beautiful.AI Change Management Process, as they may affect service levels.
  2. If the fix for the problem is not justified to implement, then the problem record will remain opened. The Problem Owner will continue to investigate a workaround if one was never identified.
  3. Problem Deferral - The Problem Owner and Problem Manager can make the decision to close a problem record if a workaround AND root cause cannot be identified/determined.

Complaints Management Policy.

Objectives

This document is intended to define and describe a consistent Complaints Management process that aims to improve Beautiful.AI service quality by providing an approach to investigate, analyze, document, and remove causes of complaints from customers.

Policy

In managing complaints, we have regard to the following guiding principles of effective complaints management.

People making complaints are treated with respect. We will endeavor to involve complainants in the complaint process as far as practicable and appropriate in the circumstances.

Ensuring no detriment to complainant

We take all reasonable measures to ensure that complainants are not adversely affected because of a complaint made by them or on their behalf.

Visibility and transparency

The Beautiful.AI platform is accessible to its customers after the conclusion of the contracting process, through which the standard terms and agreements are established as a result the clauses related to the management of complaints and customer success are agreed to in the writing of the contract.

Accessibility

Our Complaint Management process is designed to make it easy for a client to make a complaint. We will assist clients to make a complaint, if required. If assistance is required in formulating or lodging a complaint, the complainant should contact the team member working on the matter. If this is not appropriate, they should contact the Complaints Officer. We understand a complainant may request that another person or organization assist or represent them to make and progress their complaint. We will accept complaints from authorized representatives of complainants.

No charges

There will be no charge to the complainant for making a complaint.

Responsiveness

We will promptly confirm with a complainant that we have received their complaint. Complaints will be handled in an efficient and effective manner. We aim to resolve complaints within the agreed upon timeline as agreed to in the contract. If we anticipate we will take longer to respond, we will inform the complainant of the reason for the delay and likely time for resolution.

Objectivity, fairness, and equity

Each complaint is managed in an objective, unbiased and equitable manner.

Privacy and disclosure

We will use the information a complainant provides to assess the complaint, conduct the investigation, and seek a resolution. Personally, identifiable information concerning the complainant will not be disclosed to third parties unless the complainant expressly consents to its disclosure.

Accountability

All employees accept responsibility for effectively managing a complaint raised about them, the product or service they have provided. Where appropriate, issues raised in complaints will be addressed in partner and employee performance evaluation.

Continuous improvement

Our Complaints Management process will be reviewed periodically, and at least every three years, to aim to enhance its efficient delivery of effective outcomes. We believe that responding to and learning from complaints is an essential part of Beautiful.AI's commitment to continuous quality improvement.
