OutSmart tracks every response and resolution deadline for you, alerts you before a breach, and gives you proof you delivered.

With SLA’s in OutSmart you clearly record agreements with customers, such as response time and resolution time for malfunctions. As soon as a notification or work order is created, OutSmart immediately shows which SLA agreements apply and how much time is left.

Manual SLA tracking vs. OutSmart SLA

Topic	Without OutSmart	With OutSmart
SLA awareness	Dispatcher relies on memory or a separate spreadsheet	Live SLA timer per job — visible to dispatcher at all times
Breach prevention	Discovered after the breach — too late to act	Automatic alert fires before deadline — time to intervene
Priority routing	Based on gut feeling or whoever calls loudest	Priority automatically set by SLA tier — urgent jobs jump the queue
Client reporting	Manually compiled from job data — time-consuming and disputed	SLA compliance report generated on demand per customer or contract
Escalation	Dependent on someone noticing — inconsistent	Automatic escalation to manager when threshold is crossed
Contract evidence	Hard to prove — no timestamped audit trail	Every job timestamped from creation to resolution — verifiable proof

Always honor SLA's

The system automatically registers whether you have responded and resolved within the agreed time. This gives you reliable reports that simply show that you comply with contractual obligations. This strengthens customer trust and helps you continuously improve your service.

By making SLA’s visible in every work order, the field service knows exactly where the priority lies and the back office can follow in real time whether agreements are being met. The result is more transparency, better control and higher customer satisfaction.

Practical example

An IT service company has an SLA with the agreement that malfunctions must be resolved within 4 hours. As soon as a work order is created, OutSmart immediately shows a countdown timer. The planner sees in real time how much time is left and can deploy extra capacity if necessary.

Frequently asked questions about OutSmart SLA Management

SLA management in field service software tracks whether each job is responded to, attended, and resolved within the timeframes agreed with the client. OutSmart SLA management assigns the correct response and resolution deadlines to each job automatically and alerts the team before a breach occurs — replacing manual spreadsheet tracking with a live, automated system.

SLA rules are configured per contract, customer priority tier, or job type. When a new job is created, OutSmart reads the customer and job type and applies the matching SLA automatically — calculating the response deadline and resolution deadline from the moment the job is logged.

Yes. You configure warning thresholds — for example, an alert fires when 75% of the SLA window has elapsed without the job being attended or resolved. The dispatcher, account manager, or on-call manager receives the notification with enough time to act before a breach.

Yes. A single customer can have different SLA tiers for different asset types, priority levels, or contract packages. A critical system failure might have a 4-hour response SLA while a routine maintenance request has a 5-business-day window — both managed automatically in OutSmart.

Yes. OutSmart generates an SLA compliance report per customer or contract showing the number of jobs within SLA, breached jobs, average response time, and average resolution time — for any date range. This is useful for monthly service reviews and contract renewal discussions.

The SLA clock starts when the job is created in OutSmart — whether that is by a client submitting a request, a dispatcher logging it manually, or the Mail to Work Order feature creating it from an email. The exact timestamp is recorded and used as the basis for all SLA calculations.

Consistent SLA compliance data gives your account managers a factual basis for renewal conversations. Rather than relying on impressions, they can show the client a report proving that 97% of jobs were attended within the agreed response time — strengthening your position and justifying your pricing.
