I'd go with the direct changeover, just to see the look on the business users' faces. Gotta keep them on their toes, you know?

Pilot? Seriously? With the tight timeline, they don't have time to test the new system on a small scale. They need to go all-in, but carefully.

Parallel running? Are you kidding me? That's overkill, and a huge waste of resources. This isn't a mission-critical system, people!

Phased approach would be the safest option here. Gradually transitioning to the new system while maintaining the old one is the way to go.

A direct changeover in this situation would be a disaster. The existing system is being phased out, so the company can't afford any disruptions.
