  • Perfective maintenance to improve performance or maintainability for software product after delivery with due modifications.
  • Preventive maintenance to detect and correct latent faults in the software product after delivery before they become effective faults by making changes.


A typical maintenance engagement can start with initial interaction with the stakeholders who own the system to gather initial knowledge followed by collection of the available system documentation, source code and binaries, hosting details for system including all environments like UAT and Production system. It is followed by development of a quick functional understanding and side by side technical understanding from available resources and analysis.

So, Intersoft pays a great attention to develop as much knowledge as possible in the shortest possible time which may include debugging the system code, analysing database schema, review past defect history and system logs, closely analyse recent changes.

After a short phase of getting understanding of the system, Intersoft team responsible for maintenance of system monitors the production servers if production monitoring and deployment is responsibility of Intersoft team as part of contract. We pro-actively check different aspects like resource usage statistics in servers, logs, data samples etc. in live system to mitigate issues ahead of their occurrence and provide timely information to business users about any queries they may have about functioning of the system. Any defects found are thoroughly analysed with root cause analysis, fixed and verified. Similarly, new requirements are analysed for overall impact in system, developed and verified. All changes whether due to defects or changes or software updates are planned as short maintenance releases with due testing, user acceptance and production roll outs with proper planning.
