About this template

This OKR revolves around mitigating potential risks linked with software maintenance. It emphasizes the need to develop and implement an effective risk management model for the majority of maintenance projects. The targeted outcomes are the application of this model to current projects for proper evaluation, and training project managers on how to use it.

Another crucial aspect of this OKR seeks to address the subject of issues regarding the maintained software. The target is to have zero unresolved critical issues. This will be achieved through proactive problem identification, regular system checks, and establishing efficient issue reporting and resolution procedures.

Thriving towards skill enhancement, this OKR also entails providing titled training for all software engineers on identified critical areas. To ensure the program's success, it is necessary to schedule and conduct training sessions, develop customized training programs focusing on these areas, and identify other areas needing special attention.

At its core, this OKR is set to ensure optimal software performance by managing risks, solving critical issues timely, and enhancing the skill level of software engineers through tailored training.
