Key contacts are used when essensys need to make contact with you to raise awareness about scheduled site maintenance activities, or to notify you about unforeseen events. Contact is by email.

There are 2 types of key contact associated with each site:

We will notify the Site Key Contacts by email when there is an unforeseen event at your site. For example, when there are circuit connectivity changes, or service issues such as internet or voice outages.
We will notify the Maintenance Contacts by email when we have works planned or scheduled at your site. For example, when a service improvement requires a temporary outage to be scheduled.

Note: There are also Operator Key Contacts. These contacts are notified with multi-site service updates or when there are any service issues that are relevant to the operator but not specific to one site. For more information, see Operator key contact.
