Why do a Project Communication Plan? The Project Communication plan promotes engagement with the sponsor, senior management and the project team. It also gives your project “cover”. Project communications focus on project priorities and deliverables, as well as risks and issues with the project. Project communications include the project scope, sponsor updates, steering committee meetings, IS&T project reviews, the project plan itself, status reports that the team distributes to one another, and project team meetings and minutes.
