          1. Can be reverted back to the original system
          2. Disadvantages
            1. High Costs
              1. Time Consuming
            2. Direct Changeover
              1. What is it: In a direct changeover, the entire system is replaced in an instant.
                1. Disadvantages
                  1. Most Risk
                    1. Old system gone as soon as new system is implemented

                                1. What is it: In a pilot changeover, the new system is tried out at a test site before launching it company-wide

                                    1. Cost Effective
