Scenario

In a DCO session, GoGoRoad stakeholders stressed the importance of completing Assignments under tight deadlines as a driver of customer satisfaction. Business analysts determined that customers begin to get frustrated if service providers have not been dispatched to their location within 30 minutes of creating their request with a GoGoRoad CSR. 

As a result of this analysis, business requirement states that Managers have no more than 30 minutes to validate a new request for assistance. As a Pega Business Architect, you recognize that a Service-level agreement can be established for the Validate request Assignment to meet this requirement.

User story

As a Manager of the GoGoRoad Services team, I want the assistance requests to be validated and reviewed in a timely manner so that we adhere to our published service levels and maintain consistently high levels of services for our customers.

Technical notes documented by the System Architect

  • The Validate request Step has a work completion Goal of 15 minutes. If the goal is not reached, Assignment urgency increases by 20, and the Assignee is notified.
  • The Validate request Step has a work completion Deadline of 30 minutes. If the goal is not reached, Assignment urgency increases by 30, and the Assignee's Manager is notified.
