Prioritise a support queue

Four tickets arrive at once. Which do you take first?

  1. 1. List impact and urgencyA: one user's mouse. B: the finance team of 12 cannot print payroll, due today. C: a director's laptop is slow. D: the shared file server is offline for everyone.
  2. 2. Score impactImpact is how many people are stopped: D = whole site, B = 12, A and C = 1 each.
  3. 3. Score urgencyUrgency is how time-bound it is: B has a same-day deadline; C has none beyond annoyance.
  4. 4. Combine, do not let seniority decidePriority = impact × urgency. Rank: D, B, then A (blocking one person's work) then C (degraded, still working).

Answer: D, B, A, C — and set expectations with everyone in the queue. A job title is not a priority level; a documented matrix is what you defend the order with.

Now you try

  • One user cannot log in at all versus ten users with slow email. Which first?

  • What do you do with the ticket you cannot start yet?

  • What goes in the ticket when you close it?
