Provider Desk Incident Management and Intake

When you contact ProDesk for assistance with issues related to Networking, Supported Products, policies, or other IT related questions, we make every effort to resolve your issue or answer your question on your first contact with us. We accomplish this by asking a variety of questions to get a clear understanding of the situation that prompted your call. This triage often helps us resolve your case immediately. In addition, it allows us to document details that help expedite resolution for you in the event we need to route your case to one of the various service groups within ISC for whom ProDesk provides intake services.

If your issue is not resolved immediately, you will be provided with an incident number for your future reference. Please ask for one if it is not given to you.

Once a case is routed to a group other than ProDesk, ProDesk no longer has control over it and ProDesk staff no longer see it in the active cases console of our tracking software Remedy. ISC Networking & Telecommunications distributes reports to our customers regarding status of cases that reside with any group in ISC.

Below are some of the groups and some of the common related case types for which ProDesk provides intake:

We are working continuously with various groups within ISC to improve the service we collectively provide to you. For example, we are currently working to develop ways of reporting on all cases that originated with ProDesk so that we can be a better advocate for your cases once they have left the ProDesk queue.

Please feel free to contact us if you have not received follow up or resolution to your case within 24 hours.
