Workflow section 1 of 3

For immediate danger or life safety

  1. Contact emergency services and follow the site emergency plan first.
  2. Use the approved emergency, monitoring, dispatch, or escalation contact in your service arrangement.
  3. Then open or update the DSE ticket with the safe facts, actions already taken, and a current callback contact.
  4. Do not delay evacuation, medical response, fire response, security response, or physical safety action while waiting for a portal reply.

Workflow section 2 of 3

For urgent business impact

  1. State what is unavailable, how many people or sites are affected, when it started, and whether a workaround exists.
  2. Identify the operational deadline and the person authorized to approve downtime, access, scope, or cost.
  3. Keep one authoritative ticket and reply there with meaningful changes.
  4. A selected priority begins triage but does not by itself create a guaranteed restoration time.

Workflow section 3 of 3

Confirm the escalation is active

  1. Confirm emergency, monitoring, dispatch, site, or management contacts have been reached as required.
  2. Keep a safe callback contact available and update the DSE-###### ticket with material changes.
  3. Do not place credentials, codes, or unrelated personal information in the request.
  4. Continue the approved site safety plan without waiting for a portal reply when immediate danger remains.

Final verification

Before you leave this guide

  1. Confirm context. Recheck the DSE domain, signed-in account, company or site, ticket number, device, and request type shown on screen.
  2. Confirm the result. Perform one harmless verification and make sure the visible status matches what you expected.
  3. Keep the reference. Save the DSE-###### ticket number, confirmation, or other safe reference needed to continue the same conversation.
  4. Stop on a mismatch. Do not repeat a high-impact action. Preserve a safe screenshot, note the time and exact error, refresh once, and update or open the correct DSE ticket.
