Explanation:
I think it means that you can get someone to attend to your problem in the following way. Is what comes after a way of making contact, reporting a problem, etc.? Similar meaning to that in "atenció al client" really.

I've seen this term used (in Spanish) to refer to a helpdesk number as well, so "incident helpdesk" might be appropriate.

Referring to our discussion above, maybe my second suggestion "incident helpdesk" or "helpline"? Or perhaps rephrase the whole thing:
"To report an incident, make a query or a suggestion, contact should be made in the following way..." Good luck!

Asker: Thanks for your help Ross. I should have said (as Greg guessed), the procedures are basically numbers to call if you have a problem, so it's from the other point of view in this case although I agree with you that these would fit the other context! TY v much :)

Asker: You're absolutely right about what comes next, Greg! Bascically a list of phone numbers. I'd got as far as Customer service, but couldn't get it to fit in this context. :)
