The official business definition of Project Communications is the process by which all stakeholders are kept informed of the progress, risks, and successes of a project. It is the responsibility of project managers to ensure everyone involved in a project is kept up to date, and that decisions are made in a timely and effective manner. This includes exchanging information with stakeholders, both internally and externally, as well as keeping track of the changes to the project that may affect the timeline, budget, or performance. Project Communications should also include regular progress reports to keep all stakeholders aware of the project’s progress, as well as any risks or successes. Project Communications should also include a designated person(s) who are responsible for the communication process and can quickly address any questions or concerns that may arise. The ultimate goal of Project Communications is to ensure all stakeholders are informed and that any changes to the project can be addressed quickly and effectively.
