SLA EscalationsModule 5 of 7

Deadlines that move up the chain on their own

A deadline only matters if someone notices when it is missed. Zxseva sets a deadline for every grievance type, reminds the officer before it runs out, and escalates the case to the next level the moment it is late. No one has to remember to chase.

SLA Escalations

Accountability that does not depend on memory

Deadline per grievance type

Six hours for an open manhole, 24 hours for no water, 72 hours for a pothole. You set the rules to match your citizen charter or Public Services Guarantee Act.

Reminders before it is late

Officers are reminded at 50% and 90% of the time used.

Automatic escalation

Missed deadlines move to the next level with no manual step.

Up to three levels

Junior Engineer to Assistant Engineer to Executive Engineer, or any chain you define.

Daily summary

Senior officers get one message each morning: what is overdue, with whom, for how long.

Working hours and holidays

Clocks can run in working hours only, with your gazetted holiday list.

Lawful pauses

Pause the clock when waiting on the citizen, with a reason that the citizen sees.

Cannot be switched off quietly

Changes to deadlines and chains are logged and visible to administrators.

  4. 04

    Summary

    The case appears in the morning summary until it is closed.

Good to know

The details officers and citizens ask about

  • Escalation does not take the case away from the first officer. Both see it until it is closed.

  • Deadlines can follow your state’s Public Services Guarantee Act timelines.

  • Every escalation is time-stamped and stays in the case history.
