1INTEGRATED INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Challenges
Five challenges that can be faced during the process of managing stakeholders on the
complex defense projects
Stakeholder interests: every stakeholder group has their individual interest, considering
these the framework of the complex project is designed. After every project decision that is
taken, the stakeholder groups are approached to show their interests in it; in this case the main
challenge faced by the complex project is the varying interests of stakeholders, not all the
stakeholder group agrees to a specific decision that has been undertaken (Buede & Miller, 2016).
This as a result, creates issues in understanding the stakeholder expectations and roles whereas
these fields are very essential for a complex defense project to figure out in order to prevent the
failure of the project. Apart from these, the challenge faced during the process of stakeholder
analysis includes choosing the stakeholder whose interests and suggestions should be considered.
These challenge further results in conflict among the groups of stakeholders.
Stakeholder’s resistance to share data: this might result to be a major issue in the
process of stakeholder management while carrying out complex defense projects. In this case
analysts of the project would encounter the issue; the stakeholders might not seem to be
interested in sharing information. While carrying out a complex defense project, the main feature
that needs to be considered includes coordination from the side of stakeholders as well. In this
case their hesitation in sharing any sort of data in any field makes it a challenge for the entire
project (Dr. Edwards, 2014). This challenge further rises few more issues like resistance in
change among the stakeholders where they do not prefer to change the way they work even for
the betterment of the project.
