Page to organise the maintenance of TN.org and related servers
Monthly maintenance budget
£500 = approx 16 hours at standard rate £31.25 ph; JK at £40ph.
Most of this work will be around website hosting and maintenance, but there will be times when developers do stuff too.
All work done for this needs to be on tickets categorised with the milestone maintenance, and the category maintenance.
- we have £500 per month for maintenance
- *all* maintenance work that wants to be paid *has* to be logged in TRAC maintenance tickets
- Ed runs mid-monthly reports to get a feel of how we're doing and let you all know
- Ed runs end-month report to sum up a month and then we raise invoices for that month's work
- Devs working on maintenance tickets send in invoices and Ed gets them sorted
- Any leftovers go into the next month's budget
- we have quarterly maintenance skypes for all concerned
Monthly process
- Maintenance meet: assess month's work: what time? beginning, middle, end?
- Maintenance times tally: round up and call for invoices: end/beginning of month
- Maintenance invoices: monthly (?) invoices to TN
Month's times ongoing
- April 2013: 13:35 hrs: £421.89 billed. 2.65 hrs leftover
