Escalation Process
Description
Escalations are situations that require a transfer of responsibility from the
Dell Service Provider (DSP) to the Dell Marketing Limited Partnership
(DELL) or vice versa. Escalations are coordinated by product to the Dell
Technical Support Service Group and to the DSP on-site Program Office.
This module provides an overview of the escalation process. Dell has
provided your manager a procedure manual that addresses escalation
processes unique to your region.
The DELL Technical Support or Service Alliance Manager is the contact
point for DSP escalation. The DSP PMO or Call Center Operations is the
contact point for DELL escalation.
You can find details of each DSP-specific process in the DSP Procedure
Manual (PM) which defines the processes and procedures required for
delivery of services to be performed by the DSP to support DELL
customers. Your manager has a copy of the PM and can answer questions
