LRS Output Management


Service Level Agreement (SLA)

The service levels pertinent to the service will cover the hours during which the Managed Service is provided along with response times for incidents. In the case where a customer contracts for LRS’ Hosting Services, those hosting SLAs will also be included. The service availability for the monitoring functionality used by the remote management service is classified as High (the maximum supported level).

The following sections will provide further detail on service hours, availability and business continuity.

Remote Management Service Contact and Hours

LRS Managed Services technicians working from LRS’ regional centers can provide all administrative management tasks for customers in most regions across the world.

LRS technicians are located in LRS Corporate headquarters in Springfield, Illinois U.S.A and LRS regional offices in Cheltenham, U.K., Sydney, Australia, Singapore and Asia. The service model determines the support area(s) that will manage tickets and when appropriate, will determine when rerouting or reassignment of a ticket is necessary in order to comply with the SLAs.

Managed Services support for Critical Incidents (“SEV1 Support”) is provided during both Standard Operational Hours and Critical Operational Hours, thus providing SEV1 Support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Managed Services support for all other service incidents is available during Standard Operational Hours.

Managed Services support hours are available as set forth in the table below.

Support LevelHours
Standard Operational HoursSunday 5:00 p.m. to Friday 5:00 p.m., excluding LRS holidays.
Critical Operational HoursFriday 5:01 p.m. to Sunday 4:59 p.m., including LRS holidays.  

*LRS U.S. holidays are set forth below. Annual dates are maintained via the LRS website, Holiday Calendar for LRS Output Management Support.

In addition to Managed Services, the customer must also maintain LRS maintenance and support (M&S) services. For clarity, M&S services are not part of Managed Services, but the Managed Services group will work with the LRS support group on behalf of the customer. The terms of maintenance and support service are as set forth in customer’s license agreement and/or maintenance and support contract.

LRS Software Availability

LRS will deploy its solutions in a high availability (HA) design when managing our software as part of a managed service. The following is an example of a summary of Service Level Agreement commitments in place for LRS’ Service offerings in the workplace printing environment. Further detailed commitments, dependent upon the architectural solution chosen, will be in provided in a proposal in Service Design.
