Overnight ticket triage for a Colorado municipal utility
Municipal utility, Colorado
- Challenge
- Outage and billing tickets arriving overnight sat untouched until the morning shift, so the first two hours of every day went to sorting rather than fixing. Misrouted tickets bounced between teams, and the utility had no record of why a given ticket went where it did.
- Solution
- We built a triage agent that reads each ticket, pulls the account and outage-map context, classifies it against the utility's own routing rules and drafts a first reply. Anything below a confidence threshold is queued for a human reviewer, and every decision is logged with the evidence the agent used.
- Results
- Morning backlog cut from 140 tickets to under 20
- 38% fewer misrouted tickets in the first quarter
- Live in 7 weeks with a two-person AGS team
