Hello Fred,

I was listening to your latest podcast, I wonder if we should include maintenance strategy when studying end of life of a system? I think the high level support would decrease the potential risks but the company is more interested in obsolescence management. Thank you so much!

  Hi Gulin, thanks for the idea – there is a difference between end of life and obsolescence management. I have some time setup with James to discuss this topic and a few others that have recently been suggested.
  
  Thanks for listening!
  
  Cheers,
  
  Fred
