Business Partner ORS Work Request Process
Avaya Implementation and Installation Business Partner ORS Engagement Process
Introduction
This process outlines the steps and actions necessary for the Avaya Business Partner (BP) to successfully engage Avaya Implementation and Installation Services. The purpose of this document is to identify the ORS process flow and corresponding procedures. Below are the highlights of the process:
Business Partner must register on both the Avaya BP website and ORS link. (Please allow a few days to receive user id and password)
Avaya Business Partner will submit requests for support via ORS.
Each ORS request is automatically routed to the appropriate Avaya Engagement Specialist (ES) based on geographic region.
A list of Engagement Specialists is housed on the BP ORS dashboard.
The more accurate the information the BP provides the more successfully Avaya can provide the required support.
BP should pro-actively monitor their ORS dashboard for all engagement activity.
Avaya BPs can call the Avaya Services Center (ASC) at 1-866-AVAYA66 for general questions on pricing and other implementation and installation services.
