ITPEC IP October 2025 Question 55

Source exam: ITPEC IP October 2025Topic: Project Management

ITPEC IP October 2025 — Question 55 of 100

Stakeholders are individuals and organizations that affect the project or are affected by it — users and development managers are valid examples.

The category can also include sponsors, customers, project-team members, suppliers, regulators, operations staff, and other interested parties. Project management identifies their interests, influence, expectations, and communication needs.

Answer (a)

Why not others:
- (b) sponsors are stakeholders, but they are only one subset rather than the complete definition

- (c) describes project risks, which are uncertain events with positive or negative effects

- (d) describes deliverables and project work, not people or organizations with an interest or impact

Key rule: A stakeholder is a person, group, or organization connected through influence or impact; the term is broader than sponsor or user alone.
