Implementation Methods Quiz

Which implementation method involves immediately replacing the old system with the new system at a specific point in time?

• Parallel Running Method

• Direct Changeover Method

• Pilot Running Method

• Phased Implementation Method

What is a major risk associated with the Direct Changeover Method?

• High cost due to running two systems

• No fallback if the new system fails

• Slow implementation process

• Only a small group uses the new system first

Which method involves running both the old and new systems simultaneously for a period of time?

• Direct Changeover Method

• Parallel Running Method

• Pilot Running Method

• Phased Implementation Method

What is the main advantage of the Parallel Running Method?

• It is the fastest method

• It allows for comparison and reduces risk

• It is the cheapest method

• Only a small group is affected

Which implementation method introduces the new system to a small part of the organization before a full rollout?

• Direct Changeover Method

• Parallel Running Method

• Pilot Running Method

• Phased Implementation Method

What is the main purpose of using the Pilot Running Method?

• To save costs by not running two systems

• To test the new system in a controlled environment

• To implement the system as quickly as possible

• To implement the system in stages

Which method involves implementing the new system in stages or modules?

• Direct Changeover Method

• Parallel Running Method

• Pilot Running Method

• Phased Implementation Method

What is a key benefit of the Phased Implementation Method?

• Immediate full system use

• Lower risk by introducing changes gradually

• No need for user training

• No overlap between old and new systems

Which implementation method is generally the most expensive due to the need to operate two systems at once?

• Direct Changeover Method

• Parallel Running Method

• Pilot Running Method

• Phased Implementation Method

In which scenario is the Direct Changeover Method most suitable?

• When the new system is untested

• When the old system is unreliable or failing

• When cost is not a concern

• When gradual change is preferred
