Service scope
- Service constraints
- Our managed service is designed to be highly flexible, but there are some constraints buyers should be aware of. Service delivery is governed by agreed SLAs, defined support hours, and a standard change control process. Certain activities fall outside core BAU scope, such as major projects, bespoke development, and unsupported or end‑of‑life technologies; these are handled via separate statements of work. We also depend on appropriate connectivity, access, and vendor cooperation to meet resolution targets. Any client-specific limitations, such as legacy systems or unusual compliance requirements, are discussed and documented during onboarding to ensure clear expectations.

Halo ITSM has conducted comprehensive web chat testing with assistive technology users to ensure full accessibility compliance.
Testing encompassed compatibility with screen readers like NVDA and JAWS, verifying that messages, notifications, and controls are properly announced. Keyboard-only navigation was thoroughly evaluated for seamless interaction without mouse dependency.
Assessments aligned with WCAG 2.1 AA standards, including ARIA labelling, focus indicators, and high-contrast mode validation. Simulated sessions with users having visual and motor impairments provided actionable feedback, leading to refinements like enhanced timestamps and focus states.
These efforts confirm Halo ITSM's web chat delivers an inclusive experience, with ongoing global validations supporting live usability for all users. - Support levels
