Example
To ensure that critical issues are addressed first, a company defines a priority matrix for their IT team. For incidents with a high impact and high urgency, the priority is automatically set to critical. However, for an incident with high impact but low urgency, the priority is set to moderate to indicate it can be handled in a less immediate timeframe.
Here is an example table that aligns with industry standards for defining automatic priority assignment.
| Urgency | Impact | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| High | High | Critical |
| High | Medium | High |
| Medium | High | High |
| Low | High | Moderate |
| High | Low | Moderate |
| Medium | Medium | Moderate |
| Medium | Low | Low |
| Low | Medium | Low |
| Low | Low | Low |
