Discuss who the project stakeholders on District 4 Move project are.

The project stakeholder’s n the District 4 Move project is the project leader (or project manager), project team members, sponsors (or upper management), project customers, and the functional managers. In a larger sense, anyone who participates in the project or is impacted by its results is a stakeholder. Each stakeholder has an essential contribution to make and all stakeholder expectations need to be met. Contribution made by different people to the project is the principal criteria for identifying stakeholders.

For Trillo Apparel Company they would be the IT department, sales team, accountant, administrative assistant, customer service, designer, project manager, maintenance, operations, order fulfillment, and shipping department. I am not quite sure if the Owner/CEO, vice president, chief operating officer, chief financial officer, and chief information officer are stakeholders as well.
