Communication Requirements Analysis

A structured method to identify what information stakeholders need, how and when they need it, and in what format, using techniques such as interviews, workshops, surveys, and reviews of lessons learned from prior projects.

Key Points

  • Determines who needs what information, why they need it, and how frequently it should be communicated.
  • Uses methods like interviews, workshops, document analysis, surveys, and lessons learned reviews.
  • Results inform the communications management plan, including channels, formats, timing, and responsibilities.
  • Helps set expectations, reduce noise and overload, and support stakeholder engagement.

Example

A project manager leading an ERP rollout holds workshops with finance, operations, and IT, conducts one-on-one interviews with executives, and reviews lessons learned from a previous system implementation. From this, the PM identifies that executives need monthly dashboards, department heads need weekly status summaries, and end users need timely change notices via email and the intranet. These requirements are captured and used to build the communications management plan and a stakeholder communication matrix.

PMP Example Question

  2. Communication requirements analysis
  3. Manage communications
  4. Performance reporting

Correct Answer: B — Communication requirements analysis

Explanation: Communication requirements analysis is the technique used to identify stakeholders' information needs, which then drives the communications management plan.

ICS/OT Incident Response Drills and Exercises

An incident response plan is only a theory until the people who must use it have run it under pressure. This course helps OT engineers, operations leaders, IT responders, and security teams turn a plan on paper into a tested capability.

Define safe states and manual fallback before an incident forces the decision. Build escalation paths, tabletop exercises, and scenarios that expose the gaps a document review cannot find.

Then turn the results into evidence: an after-action report, owned improvements, recovery checks, and a drill cadence that keeps the program alive after the exercise ends.
