Question:
Define the word “stakeholder” in relation to an IT development project.
You work for a small research organization with a number of branches throughout the country. At the moment each of these branches uses a different main database system. It has been decided by Head Office that the database system used by your branch should be expanded and then used by all of the other branches to replace their existing database systems. They would need to transfer all their data to this expanded database on the main server, which would be located in the organization’s offices. A network would be set up linking all the branches to this main server.
List and explain at least FOUR different types of stakeholders in this new project. Identify their main concerns and their stake in the project.
