Configure escalation process
Stormwater Construction Activity Management can be used to manage stormwater issues through an escalation process when necessary.
Current task configuration
Note:
This section is informational only and does not require any action. It is included to provide visibility into the configuration of the escalation process.
The escalation process provided with the solution is as follows: Noncompliance 1, Noncompliance 2, Noncompliance 3, NOV 1, NOV 2, and Stop Work.
Issues are managed as tasks in Field Maps. When an issue is observed and recorded during an inspection, the task will be automatically populated with the following parameters:
- Task type: Noncompliance 1
- Status: In Progress
- Assigned to: [Full name of the inspector who observed the issue]
- Due date: [48 hours from the time the task is set]
Note:
If that day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the due date is pushed to the following Monday.
When an issue is revisited for the first time, the inspector can either mark the issue as Resolved or Unresolved. If resolved, the inspector has the ability to take notes, add a photo, and update the task status. If the issue has not been resolved, then the issue should be escalated. When the issue is escalated, the Task type is moved up one escalation status in the process. For the first escalation, the task will be set with the following parameters:
- Task type: Noncompliance 2
- Status: In Progress
- Assigned to: [Full name of the inspector who observed the issue]
- Due date: [48 hours from the time the task is set]
Note:
If that day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the due date is pushed to the following Monday.
If the Task status is Unresolved, the task will be removed from the list. A new task will appear, due at the appropriate time. This pattern repeats until Stop Work is reached.
