Control Communications

Purpose:

Provides an optimal information flow among all communication participants, at any moment in time.

Objective:

Communications throughout the entire project life cycle to ensure the information needs of the project stakeholders are met.

Description:

The Control Communications process can trigger an iteration of the Plan Communications Management and/or Manage Communications processes. This iteration illustrates the continuous nature of the Project Communications Management processes. Specific communication elements, such as issues or key performance indicators (e.g., actual vs. planned schedule, cost, and quality), may trigger an immediate revision, while others may not. The impact and repercussions of project communications should be carefully evaluated and controlled to ensure that the right message is delivered to the right audience at the right time.
