1. Maintenance is a changes made to an information system to fix or enhance its functionality.
2. Corrective maintenance refers to made changes to repairs the defects in the design, coding or implementation of the system after the system installation.
3. Corrective maintenance modifies the system to environmental changes.
4. Adaptive maintenance refers to changes made to change it’s the system functionality based on new business needs.
5. Preventive maintenance is not necessary needed in an information system.
9.4 Conducting and Managing Maintenance As maintenance activities increase the system development budget, maintenance management becomes even more important. System maintenance needs quality assurance, effective management and cost control. So, the organizations use various strategies. When estimating the budget for the system development, expenditures are not only for the system development, but also for system maintenance.
