Coverage Conditions

Conditions for SLA Coverage

Covered Scenarios

Hardware failures arising from normal business operation, manufacturing defects (within warranty), and age-related component degradation.

1

Device Must Be Under Active Contract

SLA cover is valid only while the maintenance contract is active and fees are current. Cover lapses if contract renewal is missed.

2

Ticket Logged via Approved Channel

Faults must be reported via the JAYCO Tech support portal, email, or phone. Response times are measured from ticket creation time.

3

Device Has Not Been Modified

Unauthorised hardware modifications, firmware flashing by third parties, or physical tampering may void coverage on the affected component.

4

Site Access Provided

For onsite support, the client must provide reasonable and safe access to the device and appropriate workspace for the engineer.

Exclusions

What Is Not Covered

Standard Exclusions

The following are not covered under standard SLA.

    • Accidental damage, drops, spills, crush damage, or cracked screens from physical impact (not covered)
    • Power surge damage, unless a valid surge protector was in use; lightning damage without insurance
    • Virus or malware, software-based damage; OS reinstallation chargeable unless on a managed contract
    • Unauthorised repairs, devices opened or repaired by third parties without JAYCO Tech consent
    • Cosmetic damage, scratches, dents, or housing damage not affecting function
    • Theft or loss, devices need separate insurance cover for lost or stolen incidents

Support Delivery

Onsite vs Remote Support

We triage every fault and determine the most efficient delivery method to get you back online fastest.

Onsite Support

An engineer attends your premises with tools and common parts. Required for physical hardware faults, broken screens, drive failures, component replacement.

    • Physical hardware diagnosis and repair
    • Component installation and replacement
    • Network cabling and hardware setup
    • Server rack work and infrastructure

Remote Support

First point of response for all non-physical issues. Our team can connect securely to diagnose OS issues, configuration errors, software faults, and BIOS problems without a site visit.

    • OS and driver troubleshooting
    • Network configuration and connectivity
    • BIOS / UEFI settings and firmware
    • Remote monitoring and alerting
FAQ

Common SLA Questions

How are response times measured?

Response time is measured from the moment a valid support ticket is acknowledged by our system, either via the portal, email auto-response, or phone confirmation. Tickets logged outside business hours on Basic/Business tiers begin counting from the next business day's start.

What happens if JAYCO Tech misses an SLA window?

SLA breaches are tracked and reported. Depending on contract terms, penalties may apply in the form of service credits. All breaches are logged and reviewed monthly. Persistent breaches are escalated to senior management and result in a root-cause review.

Can I upgrade my SLA tier mid-contract?

Yes, upgrades to a higher tier are effective immediately on execution of the amendment. Downgrades take effect at the next renewal period. Contact your account manager or email sales@jaycotech.pk to arrange a tier change.

Is SLA cover available for devices not purchased from JAYCO Tech?

Yes, we can provide SLA support for third-party purchased hardware subject to a prior inspection and acceptance. A base assessment fee applies to confirm device condition before contract commencement.

How many devices can be covered under one contract?

There is no maximum. Contracts can cover individual devices or entire fleets of thousands. Volume discounts apply from 20 devices and above. Enterprise-level contracts are custom-quoted based on fleet size and criticality.
