The Maintenance Plan is based on Phase G, the Content Inventory, possibly with simplifications based on Phase I, the Information Architecture.

A general introduction to this section should explain that its purpose is to provide the site owners with information they will need to keep the site up-to-date and relevant. You might also include a discussion of how to extend the site in future development phases.

For each content item or site section, this information is needed:

  1. Name of item or section
  2. Person or organization responsible for maintenance
  3. How updates will be made, including:
    • Frequency of updating
    • Whether updating is manual or automated
    • Any notes that may be helpful

This information can be arranged in a table for easy review.
