1. Scope

This SLA applies to all clients of Top Shelf Solutions AS that have an active service agreement in place. Specific targets may be adjusted by mutual written agreement for individual client contracts.

2. Voice Infrastructure Uptime

Top Shelf Solutions AS operates redundant SIP trunk infrastructure with automatic failover. We commit to a minimum of 99.9% monthly uptime for our voice platform. Planned maintenance windows will be communicated at least 48 hours in advance and scheduled outside peak business hours.

Uptime is measured as the percentage of minutes in a calendar month during which the voice platform is operational and capable of handling inbound and outbound calls.

3. Call Handling Standards

  • Answer rate: ≥ 95% of all inbound calls answered within 30 seconds
  • Abandonment rate: ≤ 5% of inbound calls abandoned before answer
  • First contact resolution: ≥ 80% of contacts resolved without callback or escalation
  • Average handle time: as agreed per client based on service type and complexity

4. Incident Management

Incidents are classified and responded to as follows:

SeverityDescriptionResponse Time
Critical (P1)Total voice platform outage< 15 minutes
High (P2)Significant call quality or routing degradation< 1 hour
Medium (P3)Partial service impact or non-critical feature issue< 4 hours
Low (P4)Minor issues or enhancement requestsNext business day

5. Reporting

All active clients receive a weekly performance report covering call volumes, answer rates, resolution rates, and any incidents. Enterprise clients additionally receive real-time dashboard access. Monthly reviews are available on request.

6. Service Credits

Where Top Shelf Solutions AS fails to meet the committed uptime of 99.9% in any calendar month, clients are entitled to a service credit equivalent to one day of monthly fees per full percentage point below the commitment, up to a maximum of 10% of that month's invoice. Credits are applied to the following month's invoice and do not entitle the client to a cash refund.

7. Exclusions

SLA commitments do not apply to downtime or degradation caused by:

  • Actions or omissions of the client or their third-party providers
  • Force majeure events (natural disasters, government action, etc.)
  • Scheduled maintenance communicated in advance
  • Third-party PSTN or carrier outages outside our network
