Incidents
An “Incident” is classified as an issue with the Validis platform which affects the Validis Service in terms of functionality or availability to the Licensee or its authorized users of the platform.
Incidents may be identified by the Licensee’s service desk supporting the Validis Service or as a result of an End User’s support issue. Validis allocates the Incident priority during initial investigation and only Validis can amend this if further investigation by Validis proves the initial priority to be incorrect.
