After you request help, we may ask a few extra questions about your system before we continue.

Timing outside your window?

If the timing on the table does not match the window you chose, we ask you to approve before anything is finalized.

After hours

For overnight or after-hours requests, work on your request can continue overnight, and manual follow-up may be limited until the next window when additional review is needed.

If we need more reach, we may expand outreach or follow up with you directly so you are not left waiting without an update.
