Companies spend between sixty and seventy percent of their resources to correct, adopt and maintain existing software. Inadequate attention to maintainability, from early stages, could cause most of the time programmers spend on development to be spent on maintenance. An adequate level of maintainability brings benefits such as: simplification of complexity, reduction of maintenance time and costs. Maintainability has a significant impact on the overall quality of an application and on the economic success of the software product. Based on the importance of this feature in software management, a process is presented that includes the activities to be performed in the engineering disciplines of development, as well as the roles and artifacts of inputs and outputs. It is defined a list of maintainability requirements, to facilitate their identification in software projects, associated to the factors that influence the maintainability sub-characteristics, raised in the Cuban Norm ISO/IEC 25010.

Palavras-chave : software; maintainability; sub-characteristic; process; factors.
