Maintenance Planning Guidelines and Plan Outline

Summary: This guideline will help you identify the appropriate types and timing of maintenance planning for your project, integrate it into your overall project plan, and eventually produce a full-blown maintenance plan later in the project.

This guideline will help you and your team:

• Plan ahead for the work that happens after releasing a product or system to its customers.
• Identify items that your project may have to create to support post-project maintenance; for example diagnostic tools, support documentation, etc.

What you get:

• Instructions on how to use the guideline.
• Introduction to Maintenance planning, types of maintenance work, and how maintenance planning fits within the development of the system or product to be maintained.
• An annotated outline for writing a Maintenance Plan.
