For a while I had a long post-imaging script that took care of things like
network settings, antivirus updates, etc., then I adopted the modular
approach even with my scripts. Now I have several smaller scripts but
they¹re easier to maintain this way and I can apply them as part of the
imaging process or run them individually to correct minor problems.

If you¹ve got one script doing several unrelated things then consider this
approach.
