Adoption of this plan further requires our commitment to the following objectives: 1.

The establishment, and clear communication and maintenance of the project’s overall organizational structure (NV H.I.E., 2012) 3. The involvement, where appropriate, of all relevant internal and external project stakeholders in the definition, maintenance, and execution of the project’s management processes (NV H.I.E., 2012) 4. The establishment and maintenance of the project’s technical and administrative environment (NV H.I.E., 2012) 5. The integration and coordination of all associated project plans and processes (NV H.I.E., 2012) 6.
