- Ticket types: ITAM queue consists of various types of issues, some of which will be outside the scope/access of the BPO team. All of the issues will require a level of investigation and then an action. The BPO team should focus on the pre-agreed types of tickets for which training will be given.
- New issue types: at times when a new Problem or Issue is discovered, BPO will need to report this to the ITAM team who will then create tools and provide guidance in how to solve these issues.
- Communication: there will be no communication from the 2nd line support team and the customer. CS team will be raising tickets on behalf of the customer when an escalation is required. BPO team will therefore communicate with the CS team via the ticket when needed.
