Build More Resilient Operations with PagerDuty Incident Management

Mitigating business risk is a key enterprise priority. To avoid unnecessary exposure to the business, technical teams need a proactive approach to managing incidents. While this is a well-known challenge, it’s also much easier said than done. Over the years, many organizations have cobbled together their own bespoke processes for managing different types of incidents. The patchwork approach of tools and processes has made the whole endeavor unwieldy and unscalable, leading to delays in resolving incidents and negative impact to customer satisfaction.

Clearly, there are still gaps in accountability and coordination before, during and after incidents. To address these gaps, technical teams often rely on a mix of do-it-yourself and third-party tools, integrating into legacy systems for quick fixes. However, once the band-aid fix is implemented, the continuous influx of incidents leaves little time for reflection and improvement. Without dedicated time for documentation and learning, these incidents persist, hindering progress, leading to team burnout, and ultimately, delaying the development of revenue-driving features that customers are looking for.

The modern enterprise needs to transform its approach to managing incidents. By shifting the focus towards scalable processes, dynamic guidance and continuous improvement, organizations can drive accountability and help build resilience over time.
