Supporters Stakeholders in the Suburban Homes Construction need one to understand the results of the project and how people and groups will be affected. Since stakeholders include people working on the project and the resources for the project, there is a need to monitor regulations, laws, and standards of the stakeholders. Therefore, identifying the stakeholders should be based on various roles the stakeholder can perform such as the supply of the construction materials by the suppliers and local law enforcers. Finding the possible stakeholders for the project requires the project managers to use the brainstorming techniques with the consultation of the project constructor (Kloppenborg and Wells pp.180) . The employees’ financial emotional and legal interests should be considered for better project performance and feedback with the face to face communications . After identifying the customers’ interests as the stakeholders, the company should ensure the there are frequent meetings and flow of emails to the customers with the production of reliable and affordable services with cybersecurity. Analysis of the stakeholders requires the identification techniques that are used to evaluate information that determines the stakeholder’s interest in the project role. Prioritization of the stakeholders is important in the Suburban Homes Construction Project since it helps the stakeholders to concentrate on their role in the project. As a result, the prioritization of the

Determining the stakeholders and prioritizing the stakeholders, the project manager effectively accomplishes the goals of the project. The clear directions are set for the future of the project and the competitive objectives are prioritized (Kloppenborg and Wells pp.182) . As a result, the managers learn to recognize complex tradeoffs and the consequences that facilitate the decision making hence build a strong relationship with the customers and the suppliers. Stakeholder Matrix The project manager should come up with a plan that will effectively engage the stakeholders in the planning and performing of the project. The plan should be based on the

Strategies for the support of the stakeholders include the stakeholder's ideas and offering to the trade-offs. Identifying the position of the stakeholders requires greater engagement efforts due to the change in position hence greater risks of the project (Kloppenborg and Wells pp. 184) . The impact of the change is clear with the nature of different groups and stakeholders positions which is reevaluated in the project.

The developed stakeholders’ matrix helps in understanding the stakeholders’ assumptions concerning the project hence forming the basis of project expectation. Therefore, the project manager needs to clarify the assumptions and negotiate with the stakeholders for the effective planning of the project. To complete the assigned activities and to solve problems quickly, the project team should work towards satisfying the stakeholders’ expectations during the project execution. Also, achievement of the expectations requires commitment and sharing the planning documents with the stakeholders. Since stakeholder may identify other expectations during the project execution, the managers should hold informal conversations with the stakeholders to ensure that they fulfill the details planned for the project (Kloppenborg and Wells pp.188) . The emergence of additional expectations needs to be considered in terms of the project’s formal change with the plan of revising the project activities to be performed.

The technical, cost and mechanical challenges have to be addressed for the success of the project. As a result, the communication matrix should be employed to enable people to work together to address unique challenges. Since the project is unique, a different set of stakeholders are required for cooperation and coordination to harmonize the project. The communication matrix authorizes work and determines the requirements for the project by uncovering and resolving issues in the project. Effective communication is necessary to resolve the difference of the stakeholders. Consequently, the communication plan should be put in place to manage the issues that cannot be handled by the project managers (Kloppenborg and Wells pp. 187) . However, the project managers need to determine how issues and decision making is handled so that the project conclusion is determined. Also, the project manager will develop trust with the stakeholders through the transparent communication with confidentiality on the information not appropriate to share. Mechanics Managing the project requires the work associated with the project plan and the organization of the project. Planning for the project and generating it are the major steps of the effective communication of a project (Kloppenborg and Wells pp.193) . The right project information should, therefore, be shared with the stakeholders for the success of the project in the right format. The information required to develop the project should be planned and assessed before beginning the project. While the project is underway, the mechanic of the project with the
