Annual Maintenance Contracts

A yearly contract for ongoing support, maintenance and minor enhancements to your ERP or software systems under agreed service levels, billed once, not task by task.

  • 1Annual invoice instead of billing
  • 3Contract tiers to match your support
  • 100%Of requests tracked against an agreed
  • IncludedMinor enhancements bundled into

Why It Matters

Ad hoc support billing makes costs hard to plan for

One annual number instead of a stream of invoices

Support, maintenance and minor enhancements are covered under one contract and one annual invoice, so the cost is known upfront rather than accumulating request by request.

  • One agreed cost for the full year
  • No separate invoice per support request
  • Scope and tier agreed before the term starts

Coverage that renews before it runs out

Usage is reviewed ahead of renewal, so a tier can be adjusted with real data instead of coverage lapsing unnoticed until something breaks.

  • Usage reviewed before the renewal date
  • Tier can move up or down at renewal
  • No gap in coverage between terms

From scoping the contract to renewal

  1. Assess current systems

    We review what needs ongoing support, maintenance and enhancement coverage.

  2. Choose a tier

    Standard, Priority or Premium, matched to your expected support volume.

  3. Sign the annual contract

    One agreed scope, one term, one invoice for the year.

  4. Raise requests under SLA

    Support, maintenance and minor enhancement requests tracked against the agreed response time.

  5. Renew and adjust

    Usage is reviewed before renewal, and the tier can change if your needs have.

Everything covered under the annual contract

  • Bug fixes and patches

    Issues in your existing system fixed under the agreed contract scope.

Annual Maintenance Contracts, answered

What does an Annual Maintenance Contract actually cover?

An Annual Maintenance Contract covers ongoing support, maintenance and minor enhancements for your ERP or software systems under agreed service levels, billed once a year instead of per request.

What is the difference between the contract tiers?

Standard, Priority and Premium differ mainly in response time and the scope of included items, from bug fixes and patches at the Standard tier up to a dedicated support contact and faster response at the Premium tier.

Are minor enhancements included, or billed separately?

Minor enhancements are included within the scope agreed for your tier. Larger changes that fall outside that scope are quoted separately rather than billed against the contract.

What happens if we use more support than the contract covers?

We flag it before it becomes a problem and discuss moving to a higher tier or handling the extra work as a separate, quoted engagement.

Can we change tiers during the contract term?

Tier changes are usually applied at renewal, though we can discuss an earlier move if your support needs change significantly mid-term.

What happens when the contract is close to renewal?

We review usage against your tier before the renewal date, so you can adjust the tier or scope with real data rather than guessing.
