How to Build Escalations That Actually Work
Most IT teams already know when something breaks. The real problem is making sure the right person responds fast enough. A server goes down. A customer-facing application crashes.

The wrong person is scheduled. Everyone assumes somebody else is handling it. That is how small incidents become expensive outages.
