This paper aims at providing guidelines enabling productive software construction by offering reusable modules which is used not only for effective maintenance for each step, but also for a re-engineering process after analyzing developed source code. There are four processing steps. The first is to analyze source code. The second is module slicing and clustering using McCabe and BP/Win Tools, The third is to transform the outputs extracted from the business model to reusable modules. The final step is to design repository and to construct a system. In this paper, we applied the fourth step to our case study, which was specified from the first step to the fourth. The specified fourth step contains various things for constructing repository. And the fourth step reanalyzes informal and unstructured information by using reverse engineering tools, in order to provide effective guidelines for productive software maintenance and re-engineering.
