The best time to plan a major upgrade is before you have to.
A planned upgrade runs on your schedule — around your turnaround windows, at the scope your site requires, with the resources to do it right. The platform is ready. What you already have carries forward. The upgrade brings the capabilities your operation hasn't had yet — on your timeline, not anyone else's.
Your system is also running on a Microsoft operating system that is past end-of-support. Version 16.LTS resolves that — a current security posture, on a fully supported platform — as part of the same project.
