System Changeover

System Changeover means the management of change of systems and processes in a workspace without disrupting the organization’s regular operations.  Several components of the systems transform during a system changeover, and they are usually linked to other systems. As a result, extra steps are made to ensure that no mistakes occur during this stage.

When executing a system changeover, there are three techniques to choose from:

Direct Changeover – 

The systems are switched over as quickly as feasible, and the new system takes over immediately while the old one is shut down.

Parallel Running –

For a small period, the organization uses both new and old systems and then switches to the new one if it proves to be more efficient.

Phased Implementation –

In this situation, the systems are modified in stages so that work is not impeded.
