Problem

Scenario

You’re responsible for incident triage in a SaaS platform, where the team is expected to respond quickly without misclassifying issues or escalating noise. You need a clear approach for deciding when to act fast with incomplete information versus when to slow down and validate before routing, escalating, or communicating impact.

Question

How do you balance the need for speed with the need for accuracy when performing incident triage?
