SRMS Tier 3 Response

Turn Monitoring Alerts Into Priority Field Response

Tier 1 gives connectivity. Tier 2 adds protection. Tier 3 closes the loop by tying monitoring outcomes to service operations, scheduling discipline, and documented follow-through.

For HOA and high-accountability properties, Tier 3 reduces operational drift by making sure issues move from notification to action instead of lingering unresolved.

Quick Answer: Why Tier 3?

Tier 3 is about response accountability. It pairs protection data with defined service workflows so alert events get triaged, scheduled, and tracked through completion.

Tier 3 vs. Tier 2

Tier 2 (Protection) Tier 3 (Protection + Response)
Abnormal conditions are surfaced Abnormal conditions are surfaced and operationally routed
Response depends on ad hoc follow-up Priority scheduling and service-plan discipline
Limited governance trail Documented response continuity
Monitoring-focused tier Monitoring + managed response tier

Tier 3 operating model

  • All Tier 1 and Tier 2 capabilities remain active as the technical base.
  • Service Plan pairing connects monitoring outcomes to scheduled preventive and corrective action.
  • Priority response pathways reduce delay during high-risk operating windows.
  • Documentation continuity supports operational clarity for boards, managers, and ownership teams.

How Tier 3 is implemented

  • 1

    Confirm current tier baseline

    Review existing Tier 1/2 infrastructure, system behavior, and known reliability issues.

  • 2

    Define response model

    Pair protection outputs with practical dispatch, priority windows, and service governance.

  • 3

    Integrate Service Plan cadence

    Use seasonal visits and checkups to keep baseline quality and reduce recurring failures.

  • 4

    Track and refine

    Document outcomes and tune response standards as property conditions evolve.

Best fit

  • HOA or shared landscapes with board-level oversight.
  • Commercial sites where deferred response is costly.
  • Properties requiring consistent service accountability.

Scope notes

  • Tier 3 builds on Tier 1 and Tier 2 foundations.
  • Service Plan response terms define operational cadence.
  • Quote is finalized after inspection and scope review.

Tier 3 Connectivity + Protection + Response FAQs

What is SRMS Tier 3?

SRMS Tier 3 combines the connectivity and protection layers with a structured service response model so alerts move into scheduled and priority field action.

How is Tier 3 different from Tier 2?

Tier 2 adds protection capabilities. Tier 3 adds response integration, pairing monitoring outcomes with priority scheduling and service follow-through.

Does Tier 3 require a Service Plan pairing?

Tier 3 is designed to pair with Service Plan workflows so monitoring is backed by scheduled maintenance and response discipline.

What does 24-hour response mean in this context?

24-hour response refers to contact and dispatch timing targets for scoped plan requests; completion timing can vary based on access, weather, diagnostics, and parts.

Is Tier 3 required for SRMS to function?

No. Tier 3 is an optional enhancement for properties that need managed response and governance-friendly operational continuity.

Who typically chooses Tier 3?

Tier 3 is commonly selected by HOAs, shared common areas, and commercial properties where downtime, liability, or deferred response has high consequences.

Can I start with Tier 1 or Tier 2 and upgrade to Tier 3 later?

Yes. Tier 3 is typically layered onto existing Tier 1 and Tier 2 foundations when the property is ready for managed response integration.

What system sizes are supported for Tier 3?

Current scope is optimized for typical 1-inch and 2-inch irrigation systems. Larger configurations may require custom pathing.

Are repairs included in Tier 3?

Tier 3 emphasizes prioritized response and service continuity. Repair scope and billing are defined in the associated service agreement and inspection quote.

How is Tier 3 pricing scoped?

Tier 3 is service-scoped and quoted after inspection based on existing tier status, system complexity, access, and required service-plan response level.
