Application Maintenance & Support

We take on the maintenance of live applications — incidents, dependency currency, monitoring and small changes — under a support arrangement with clear response expectations and visible work. Faults are triaged against defined severity levels, so what is urgent is treated urgently and the rest is handled in turn. Libraries, runtimes and platform versions are kept supported and security updates applied on a schedule, rather than allowed to fall years behind until updating feels dangerous. Alongside this we deliver a steady flow of small improvements, and report regularly on incidents, changes and the risks still outstanding.

In short

Application maintenance and support keeps software running and current: fixes, dependency updates, monitoring and small improvements under agreed response expectations. Software is not finished at launch; it decays unless it is kept current, and this is the work that keeps it alive.

What we do

The work inside application maintenance & support.

Incident handling

We triage, diagnose and resolve faults with severity definitions and communication your business can rely on. Agreed severity levels mean everyone knows what counts as urgent and what response to expect. You are kept informed through an incident rather than left guessing whether it is in hand.

Dependency and security currency

We keep libraries, runtimes and platform versions supported, and apply security updates on a schedule. Dependencies left to drift become both a security exposure and a growing obstacle to any future change. Keeping them current on a routine turns updating from a feared event into ordinary housekeeping.

Monitoring and preventive work

We watch error rates, performance and capacity, and fix causes rather than repeatedly clearing symptoms. Treating the cause rather than the recurring symptom reduces the volume of incidents over time. Watching capacity and performance lets a problem be addressed before it becomes an outage.

Small enhancements

We deliver a steady flow of small improvements alongside support, prioritised with you. This keeps the application moving forward rather than merely being kept alive. Priorities are agreed with you, so the effort goes where it matters most to the business.

What you receive

Deliverables, in writing.

Documented output your teams keep and can act on without us in the room.

  • Support arrangement with severity levels and response expectations
  • Dependency and patch currency schedule
  • Monitoring and alerting coverage
  • Regular report of incidents, changes and outstanding risks

When this work helps

You may be facing this.

  • The person who built the application has left
  • Dependencies are years behind and updates feel risky
  • Faults are reported by users before anyone internal notices

How an engagement runs

Discover, assess, design, deliver.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Understand the outcome, users, constraints, and the decisions that must be made before code direction is set. We spend this time with the people who own the result and the people who will build it, so scope reflects both.

  2. 02

    Assess

    Examine the current architecture, delivery practice, integration surface, and engineering risk. We establish where the genuine difficulty lies, rather than accepting the risk the team already happens to worry about most.

  3. 03

    Design

    Define the technical approach, delivery plan, quality gates, and ownership model in writing. Committing it to writing means the reasoning behind each decision survives staff change and supplier handover.

  4. 04

    Deliver

    Work with your teams through build and release, adjusting the plan as evidence emerges rather than defending the original estimate. We keep the quality gates and progress evidence in place so leadership can watch the build land.

Where we work

Delhi, India — and wherever the work is.

Fidova provides software development consulting from Delhi, India, and works with product and engineering teams internationally — across India, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Europe, the UK, and North America — remotely, with on-site time where the work needs it.

Engagements run in English, are scheduled around your time zone, and can be delivered remotely end to end, with on-site time planned where a phase genuinely benefits from being in the room.
