EngagementMaintenance and Support

Software maintenance and support that keeps what is already live healthy

Centricone Technologies takes on running systems — including ones we did not build. Monitoring, patching, dependency upgrades, bug fixes, and an escalation path with a named engineer, so the software your business depends on stops being a risk nobody owns.

Taking over someone else's codebase starts with an audit, not a promise. You get an honest read on what you have before either side signs anything.

of code reviewed, tested, and documented before release

The system is running and nobody is looking after it

01

The people who built it have gone

No documentation, no tests, and dependencies years out of date. Every change starts with an archaeology dig, so changes stop happening.

02

Security patches are behind

Frameworks and libraries have moved on, the upgrade keeps being deferred as too risky, and the gap grows in exactly one direction.

03

Outages are discovered by customers

Monitoring is thin or noisy, there is no on-call rota, and the first signal that something broke is a support ticket.

Centricone covers the whole of keeping software alive: monitoring and response, patching and upgrades, small changes, and the documentation that should have existed.

The ongoing agreement

Deliverables

What you get

  • A written audit of the system as it is today
  • Monitoring and alerting you can see
  • A named engineer and a documented escalation path
  • A patching and upgrade schedule
  • Runbooks and architecture documentation
  • A monthly report of what changed and what is at risk

How a support engagement starts

1

Audit

A short, paid-for-by-us read of the code, infrastructure, and deployment path, ending in a written risk list.

2

Stabilize

Backups, secrets, monitoring, and the most exposed dependencies — the work that reduces risk fastest.

3

Agree the shape of the cover

Hours, response times, on-call expectations, and what counts as a change rather than a project. Written down before it starts.

4

Run it

Patching on schedule, changes each month, and a report you can hold us to.

When maintenance is the wrong engagement

Sometimes keeping a system alive is the expensive option, and we will tell you when we think that is the case.

  • The system no longer matches how the business works — you are paying to preserve the wrong thing.
  • The platform or framework is past end of life with no upgrade path. That is modernization, staged, not maintenance.
  • You need feature delivery at pace. A support agreement is sized for change at the margin, not for a roadmap.
  • The real need is capacity inside your own team — that is staff augmentation.

Frequently asked questions

Not sure this is the right shape? Tell us the situation and we’ll say which engagement fits.

Yes — most of this work is exactly that. We start with an audit of the code, dependencies, infrastructure, and deployment path so both sides know what is really there, and we tell you honestly if we think it should be replaced rather than maintained.
It scales with how critical the system is, the response times you need, and how much change you want each month. A business-hours agreement on a stable internal system is a very different number from 24/7 cover on a revenue-carrying platform. The audit comes first, then a written proposal.
Yes, for production systems under an agreement that specifies it, with an escalation path that reaches a named engineer. Some teams prefer to keep on-call in house — in that case we build the alerting and runbooks and train the rota.
Bug fixes, patches, upgrades, and small changes inside the existing design are maintenance. Anything that changes what the system does in a material way is a project, quoted separately. We agree where that line sits before the engagement starts, so it is never a monthly argument.
Yes. We run the audit in parallel with the handover, capture what is only in their heads while they are still available, and stage the transition so there is no window where nobody is covering the system.
