In operations, crises happen. A trucker strike, a software bug, a defective product batch. What defines a company's reputation isn't the crisis, it's the **Crisis Response**. Silence is the worst enemy. Proactive communication is salvation.

### **The War Protocol**

1. **Identify:** The system must alert a spike in complaints.
2. **Communicate:** Notify the customer *before* they notice.
3. **Resolve:** Task force for correction.

### **The War Room in Jestor**

This is where Jestor stands out by delivering the solution in practice:

- **Anomaly Detection:** If support tickets spike 50% in an hour, the dashboard turns red.
- **Mass Blast:** Communicate with all affected customers with one click. "We identified an error and are fixing it."
- **Crisis Kanban:** Create a temporary flow to handle only the urgent cases of that crisis, separating them from the normal routine.

### **Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)**
