3. Investigation: Gather information to understand the root cause of the incident/problem. This may involve analyzing system logs, interviewing involved parties, or conducting diagnostic tests.

4. Prioritization: Determine the priority level of the incident/problem based on its impact on the business and its urgency for resolution. This will guide resource allocation and response efforts.

5. Resolution: Develop and implement a plan to address the incident/problem. This may involve applying temporary workarounds, deploying patches or fixes, or escalating the issue to specialized teams.

6. Communication: Keep stakeholders informed about the progress of the incident/problem resolution. Provide regular updates on the status, expected timeline for resolution, and any mitigation measures in place.

7. Documentation: Document all steps taken during the incident/problem resolution process. This includes the actions performed, decisions made, and outcomes achieved. This documentation will be valuable for future reference and learning.
