A help desk call scorecard, 100 points.
Points are illustrative, so fit them to the service level each queue commits to and the verification method your security policy requires.

|---|---|---|
| Ticket opened | Captures name, organization, contact details, and the issue description in a new or existing ticket | 15 |
| Identity verified | Verifies the caller through the approved method for that queue before any account change | 20 |
| Severity classified | Assigns severity from the definitions for that queue and states it to the caller | 15 |
| SLA acknowledged | Tells the caller the response or resolution time the SLA commits to | 10 |
| Troubleshooting | Works the issue in a logical order and documents each step tried | 15 |
| Escalation handled | Escalates to an engineer with the ticket number, the steps tried, and the caller informed | 15 |
| Closing | Confirms the ticket number, the next step, and the callback contact | 10 |
| Total | 100 |
