Cook Consultants is currently in the process of completing the systems implementation activities for converting The Samuel Company's old system to a new one. Because of unexpected delays in performing specific implementation activities, Jerry Hazen. the project manager, is concerned about finishing the project on time. The one remaining activity is testing the new computer system and subsequently eliminating the old one. Jerry's assistant Jan Kramer, suggests that they can still meet their deadline if they use "direct conversion" rather than "parallel conversion". Assuming that you are CIO of the company, how would you react to Jan's suggestion? Discuss.
