Collect Action Items

Jeli Part of PagerDuty

Action items provide a structured way to document and track remedial steps and future improvements identified during a Jeli incident. Action items ensure that lessons learned are translated into concrete follow-up steps, for example:

  • Engineering work tickets and other work items.
  • Setting up a meeting to discuss the options for tackling a specific issue.
  • A project to pull data from incidents involving a piece of legacy code to help prioritize a re-write.
  • An initiative to involve support teams earlier in the product development process.
