Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Phased conversion involves implementing a new system one module at a time, which is the approach Mother Goose is planning to use for the protein folding division. Direct conversion involves replacing the entire old system with the new one at once, parallel conversion involves running the old and new systems simultaneously, and pilot conversion involves implementing the new system only in one department or area to test its effectiveness before a full implementation.
