at the centre
As noted above, there is a variety of different A common distinction between projects that

dialogue are critically important. Even where
there is a strong overall business case, it is
important to understand that the benefits of
implementation may not be felt equally by all
participants although all will likely bear some
part of the cost. Campaigns need to set
out a broad and compelling vision but also
address the narrower concerns that might
impact particular segments. Planners should
also take the time to understand the practical
implementation needs of the various different
types of stakeholders in their communities
and ensure that the deliverables of the project
include the documentation, tools and other
artefacts they will need to implement the
standard correctly, on time, and at acceptable
cost.
