I don't know if it would help or not to mention that the existing system helped to get the company to where it is today, when delivering the "now is the time to get rid of this" pitch.
Acknowledging how long the existing system has been live would hopefully be a reminder that you're not trying to erase their achievement.

- hinkley 3y agoI haven't quite had 'nuclear' but I know what you two are talking about. "But we would have gone out of business 3 years ago if that weren't written!" Yes. Three years ago. And it's not three years ago.
