  1. INCIDENT MANAGEMENT (TRACeR MODEL)

Check

Verify the Fix and Ensure Effectiveness.

The Check phase in the TRACeR method verifies whether the action taken during the previous phase has successfully resolved the incident. This step is critical to confirm that the problem has been fully addressed without introducing new issues, ensuring the solution is sustainable and effective.

Key Actions in the Check Phase

  1. Verification Testing:

    • Verification tests will be conducted to determine if the incident has been entirely resolved. This may involve running diagnostic tools, checking system logs, or validating system outputs.

    • Use the same conditions that initially revealed the problem to ensure the incident does not recur.

  2. User Confirmation:

    • When applicable, reach out to the end-user or affected parties to confirm that their issue has been resolved from their perspective.

    • Gather feedback to ensure no outstanding concerns and that all incident symptoms are resolved.

  3. Monitor for Recurrence:

    • Implement monitoring for a short period to ensure that the fix is stable and that there are no signs of recurrence. This could include real-time monitoring tools or proactive checks to watch for similar issues.

    • Pay particular attention to the root cause indicators that were initially identified to ensure the underlying issue is no longer present.

  4. Documentation:

    • Update the incident record with the results of the verification process. Document whether the resolution was successful or if further actions are needed.

    • Ensure that insights gained during this phase are logged adequately for future reference and learning.

Outcomes of the Check Phase

  • Successful Incident Resolution confirms that the issue is fully resolved without side effects. This ensures the system returns to its normal operating state and is ready for use.

  • Reduced Recurrence Risk: Verifying and monitoring the resolution helps to prevent the same issue from occurring again, thus improving system reliability.

  • User Satisfaction: By involving end-users in the confirmation process, there is a greater assurance that their experience has been fully addressed, leading to improved user satisfaction.

The Check phase is essential to ensure the resolution is effective, stable, and meets user needs. It validates the effort taken during the action phase, identifies any potential areas where further work is needed, and provides a measure of quality assurance to ensure the problem does not reoccur. This phase also builds trust with stakeholders by confirming that incidents are thoroughly addressed and verified before closure.
