1. Project
Management
Plan
– provides
informa3on
on
how
the
project
will
be
executed,
monitored,
controlled,
and
closed.
2. Stakeholder
Register
– provides
the
informa3on
needed
to
plan
the
communica3on
with
project
stakeholders.
3. Enterprise
Environmental
Factors
– the
structure
of
an
organiza3on
will
have
a
major
effect
on
the
project’s
communica3on
requirements.
4. Organiza3onal
Process
Assets
– lessons
learned
and
historical
informa3on
are
of
par3cular
importance
because
they
can
provide
insights
on
both
the
decisions
taken
regarding
communica3ons
issues
and
the
results
of
those
decisions
in
previous
similar
projects

1. Communica3on
Requirements
Analysis
– determines
the
informa3on
needs
of
the
project
stakeholders.
Project
resources
should
be
expended
only
on
communica3ng
informa3on
that
contributes
to
the
success
of
the
project
or
where
a
lack
of
communica3on
can
lead
to
failure.

where

represents

number
of
stakeholders.

2. Communica3on
Technology
– Factors
that
can
affect
the
choice
of
communica3on
technology
include:
• urgency
of
the
need
for
informa3on;
• availability
of
technology;
• ease
of
use;
• project
environment;
• sensi3vity
and
confiden3ality
of
the
informa3on.

4. Communica3on
Methods
– Interac3ve
communica3on.
Between
two
or
more
par3es
performing
a
mul3direc3onal
exchange
of
informa3on.
It
is
the
most
efficient
way
to
ensure
a
common
understanding
by
all
par3cipants
on
specified
topics,
and
includes
mee3ngs,
phone
calls,
instant
messaging,
video
conferencing,
etc.
– Push
communica3on.
Sent
to
specific
recipients
who
need
to
receive
the
informa3on.
This
ensures
that
the
informa3on
is
distributed
but
does
not
ensure
that
it
actually
reached
or
was
understood
by
the
intended
audience.
Push
communica3ons
include
lebers,
memos,
reports,
emails,
faxes,
voice
mails,
blogs,
press
releases,
etc.
– Pull
communica3on.
Used
for
very
large
volumes
of
informa3on,
or
for
very
large
audiences,
and
requires
the
recipients
to
access
the
communica3on
content
at
their
own
discre3on.
These
methods
include
intranet
sites,
e-‐learning,
lessons
learned
databases,
knowledge
repositories,
etc.
