Summary

Manage the involvement of relevant stakeholders in the project.

Description

Stakeholder involvement is managed according to the project’s integrated plan and defined process.

The supplier agreement provides the basis for managing supplier involvement in the project. Supplier agreements (e.g., interagency and intercompany agreements, memoranda of understanding, memoranda of agreement) that the acquirer makes with stakeholder organizations, which can be product or service providers or recipients, provide the basis for their involvement.

These agreements are particularly important when the acquirer’s project produces a system that will be integrated into a larger system of systems.

Refer to the Project Planning (PP) (CMMI-ACQ) process area for more information about planning stakeholder involvement and obtaining plan commitment.
