Pelican, Jekyll, Piecrust, etc, all static site generators all work
more or less on the same way. I've been using jekyll for my personal
website and other projects for two years and it's quite
straightforward, once the site is prepared, just place an
html/markdown/rst file on the posts or pages folder and rebuild/sync
with the server. It's way easier than maintaining a Drupal/CMS site
IMHO, and your web is a pure HTML site that you can move anywhere
instantly.

Anyway this decision is up to the team preparing the website, if they
feel more comfortable with a CMS go on.
