Hmm, I don't really think its off by much, especially in Westernized nations where practically every thing is governed by contracts, regulations and legalese. And especially at a management level. You allocate resources to accomplish tasks. If you have a C++ developer, that's a resource. Resource X costs Y and produces Z could be applied to JetBrains licenses or people. Maintence for licenses is quite simple requiring updated payment information, maintence for people is a lot less clear cut and requires communication, and lots of ambiguous judgement calls. It's stale but I'm not sure there's a better word to fit in its place.
