Once a system is created and implemented the tasks of corrective and perfective maintenance begin. Typically, 60–70% of the system development resources are dedicated and used for corrective and perfective maintenance activities.

Corrective maintenance activities are focused on fixes and patches to ensure the system is running as it was originally designed to perform. Perfective maintenance takes maintenance to another level by adding features and capabilities not planned for in the original system analysis and design processes.

To Prepare for This Discussion

1. Conduct research on the activities required in the ongoing maintenance of an implemented system.
2. In an initial post, assess the activities associated with ongoing system maintenance. Justify your response.
