Maintenance

I'm looking for a tool to manage the maintenance tasks on a Windows PC. Things like disk defrag, antivirus, update software and any other maintenance.
This should not be an all-in-one solutions, with these features built in. Rather, it should be a framework to automate other tools (like CCleaner, Defragler etc.).
Many tasks should be run periodically (with different frequencies). I'm looking for one tool to manage all these tasks.
