The Incident Management Process defines structured workflows for detecting, escalating and resolving outages. It includes roles, communication paths, prioritization and post-incident reviews to restore service rapidly and drive continuous improvement. It enforces clear responsibilities and measurable metrics to reduce downtime.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Executable approach: can be applied and produces an outcome.
What organizes, connects, or makes decisions possible.
An incident management process defines the responsibilities and steps for handling a disruption from report through closure.
It arose from the need to organize recurring IT disruptions reliably and restore normal service quickly. ITSM and NIST guidance shaped the common sequence of detection, response, recovery, and review.
An incident follows a controlled chain: log and prioritize, activate roles, limit impact, restore service, communicate the result, and close the record. Measures at each transition reveal delays.
The report and context are captured so the incident can be worked.
Urgency and impact determine order and response level.
Resolution, communication, and documentation close the record traceably.
The process creates reliable support and operations and makes service objectives measurable. Rigid procedures must not delay responses to novel or especially critical incidents.
