Customer story

Manufacturing outage restored

  • Challenge:

    An executive escalation was received for an outage at a manufacturing site.

Through partnerships and out-of-the-box thinking, the Service Assurance Team rerouted the customer on an alternate path within the AT&T network, restoring their service 17 hours before the provider was able to repair their fiber.

  • Outcome:

    The Service Assurance Team’s actions demonstrates to its customers that AT&T Business is committed to leaving no stone unturned to find solutions to get their service restored as quickly as possible.
