Purpose of Product Maintenance

Foxbox Digital's Product Maintenance (managed services) offering focuses on keeping existing digital products reliable, secure and evolving, while freeing internal teams to focus on new initiatives.

The Product Maintenance teams work proactively and meticulously to:

• Keep customers happy by maintaining performance and stability.
• Protect internal teams' time from being consumed by bug fixing and support.

Proactive maintenance

Key elements of proactive maintenance include:

• Function and performance monitoring – watching how applications behave in production to catch issues early.
• Issue resolution and bug fixes – identifying and resolving defects that affect users or internal teams.
• Stability and security updates – applying updates that keep platforms secure and dependable.
• Automated testing – using test automation to detect regressions and maintain quality.

Predictable support

Product Maintenance is designed to make support more predictable and less disruptive.

The service includes:

• Responses to one-off requests – handling ad-hoc issues or changes as they arise.
• Documentation – keeping relevant technical and process documentation up to date.
• Dedicated point of contact – providing a clear owner who coordinates communication and work.

Peace of mind

Foxbox emphasizes:

• Consistent resolution times – aiming for reliable turnaround on issues.
• Weekly status meetings – keeping stakeholders informed about work in progress and system health.
• Paying down technical debt – using maintenance capacity to improve underlying systems over time.
• Fixed monthly fee – offering a predictable commercial structure (specific pricing is not listed on the site).

Example outcome – Versapay mobile strategy

The website highlights a case where Versapay faced challenges keeping up with iOS requirements and competing priorities while maintaining mobile performance.

Through a combination of:

• CI/CD automation,
• Reduced technical debt, and
• Proactive bug fixes,

Foxbox helped Versapay achieve a significantly faster release cycle and a more reliable foundation for how they serve customers.

When to use Product Maintenance

Product Maintenance is suited for organizations that:

• Rely on existing digital products to serve customers or internal teams.
• Want to reduce the burden of bug fixing and maintenance on internal staff.
• Need a partner to actively monitor, maintain and improve their applications over time.

Purpose of Staff Aug+

Staff Aug+ is Foxbox Digital's actively managed software engineering staff augmentation offering. It is designed for teams that need additional capacity and expertise, but want more than passively managed staffing.

The focus is on boosting productivity through:

• Cross-functional talent.
• Scalable delivery.
• Proactive oversight and accountability.

Cross-functional talent

Staff Aug+ can augment teams with a range of roles, including:

• Software engineers and architects.

A client quote on the site summarizes this impact: the Foxbox team "chewed up our backlog" and "worked like surgeons," reflecting a focus on high-quality execution and ownership.

When to use Staff Aug+

Staff Aug+ is suited to organizations that:

• Need to accelerate delivery on existing projects.
