       A critical documented function is not available

       System hangs indefinitely, causing unacceptable or indefinite delays for resources or response

       System crashes, and crashes repeatedly after restart attempts

You must provide Supplier with a contact during this period, either on site or by phone, to assist with data gathering, testing, and applying fixes. You are requested to propose this severity classification with great care, so that valid Severity 1 situations obtain the necessary resource allocation from Supplier.

 

2 Hours

4 Hours

Severity 2

You experience a severe loss of service. Important features are unavailable with no acceptable workaround; however, operations can continue in a restricted fashion.

 

4 Hours
