Summary

Monitor stakeholder involvement against the project plan.

Description

Refer to the Plan Stakeholder Involvement specific practice in the Project Planning (PP) (CMMI-ACQ) process area for more information about identifying relevant stakeholders and planning appropriate involvement with them.


Stakeholder involvement should be monitored to ensure that appropriate interactions occur. Depending on the results of monitoring and changes in project requirements, situation, or status, it may be necessary to re-plan stakeholder involvement.

This monitoring is particularly important in a system of systems environment in which the involvement of owners, acquirers, and customers of other systems in the system of systems is crucial to the success of that system of systems.

This monitoring is also particularly important in an environment in which a supplier is using an Agile method, in which case the sustained involvement of end users or their proxies in the supplier’s product development activities can be crucial to developing and validating one or more elements of the overall capability to be provided.

Refer to the Plan Stakeholder Involvement specific practice in the Project Planning (PP) (CMMI-ACQ) process area for more information about supporting the use of Agile methods.
