Project Communications Plan Project Acronym: ERIS Version:1.0

Contact: James Toon Date:23/09/2009

1. ERIS Project Communications Plan i. Context The Communications Plan identifies all parties interested in the project - i.e. the stakeholders and contains a description of the means and frequency of communications between them and the project team. Details of communications will include the specifics about the project, its progress and its outputs. The Communications Plan is to be regularly reviewed for effectiveness and completeness. It is a working document for review and revision during the project.

ii. Stakeholders The stakeholder list for the project is based on those identified in the agreed Project Plan plus appropriate partners and contributors identified by the work packages. This list will be reviewed and revised as the project progresses.

iii. Summary of communication documents Apart from the Communications Plan, there are other formal documents which provide information out from the project. These are shown in the table below.

Proposed schedule December 2009, June 2010, December 2010 and final report March 2011 To provide a concise report on project progress. To identify what is being proposed and when it will be done. To identify risks that might affect the project and proposed responses. To identify what activities will be undertaken to deliver the project’s products. To describe the current position of completion against product descriptions (i.e. objective evidence of completion). This will take place at ‘stage points’ which correspond to key delivery points of the project, which broadly correspond to 6 monthly review points (Sept-March 09 and 10) To review progress against the project objectives and identify areas of potential change/issue. To notify completion of the project. and identify any lessons learned and ongoing actions.

Not all of the above documents will be circulated widely, but all have the potential to communicate with stakeholders on the project’s progress or otherwise.
