Tier 3 — Implementation

Software Maintenance

Ongoing support and improvement for systems already in production — whether we built them, or you inherited them from someone else.

What's Included

A system that launches successfully still needs care after that — bug fixes, security updates, and improvements as the business changes. We provide ongoing maintenance for systems we've built, and for systems we haven't, after an initial architecture review.

  • Bug fixes and security patching
  • Performance monitoring and optimisation
  • Incremental feature improvements
  • Available as a retainer or ad-hoc support

Technical Approach

How we build it

1

Design

Architecture and requirements confirmed before a line of code is written.

2

Build

Development in visible, iterative cycles — not a black box until launch.

3

Test

Functional, performance, and security testing before anything reaches production.

4

Deploy

Staged rollout with monitoring in place from day one, not added afterward.

Technology Notes

  • Available as a monthly retainer or ad-hoc, depending on what the system needs.
  • Security patching and dependency updates handled proactively, not only when something breaks.
  • Starts with a short architecture review if we didn't build the original system.

Not sure yet?

Every build benefits from an architecture review first, so what gets built can actually scale. If you haven't scoped this yet, start with technology architecture review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you maintain a system another company built?

Yes — we typically start with a short architecture review to understand what we're inheriting before taking on ongoing maintenance.

Do you offer retainer-based support?

Yes — ongoing maintenance is available as a monthly retainer or as ad-hoc support, depending on what your system needs.
