Introduction of the Escalation Matrix
The Escalation Matrix will streamline the resolution process under the Assam Right to Public Services (ARTPS) Act by setting strict timelines for addressing various issues.
An escalation matrix is a structured plan or framework used by organizations to ensure that unresolved issues, incidents, or queries are addressed by the right level of management or personnel in a timely manner. It is commonly used in customer support, project management, and IT services to handle problems efficiently.
