Optimize your incident management with an incident management process flow

In a perfect world, your services would always run perfectly. Unfortunately, we don’t live in a perfect world, and unplanned service interruptions, product failures, and bad customer service experiences are realities that cannot always be avoided. Fortunately, however, you can plan for these eventualities and mitigate their effect on your business by planning for incident management ahead of time. A process flow can help you plan and organize your incident management response, from restoring service to users to mitigating security threats and documenting procedures. With Lucidchart’s incident management process flow template, you can map out your entire incident management process in a series of steps from start to finish and keep everyone involved on the same page.
