4 Overall Findings in Stakeholder Management  Dialogue, communication and cooperation are as useful as technique, contracts etc.  Organise and tailor stakeholder management  Distinguish between stakeholder categories

5 7 Best Practices in Stakeholder Management (1) 1.Involve operators and industry  West Coast Main Line: involving railway operators to reach an open cross-industry approach to the project  Unterinntalbahn: coordination platforms for stakeholders at all levels 2.Facilitate liaison with local stakeholders and critics  Maaswerken: negotiate with other governments but stay within the borders of scope and budget: alternative solution for flood prevention

6 7 Best Practices in Stakeholder Management (2) 3.Avoid mixed messages  Lisboa – Porto High Speed Line: a dedicated group to deal with stakeholders  HSL-Zuid: from decentralised to centralised stakeholder management to avoid mixed messages 4.Reach consensus with stakeholders before tendering  Motorway E18: finish administrative process before tender phase to avoid facing complicated contractual consequences later

7 7 Best Practices in Stakeholder Management (3) 5.Enable the political branch to supervise the project  Gotthard Base Tunnel: organised political supervision provides continuity between changing governments and project authorities 6.Formalise responsibilities with the client and/or sponsors  Betuweroute: formalise formal and informal relations to speed up decision-making and to make dealing with scope changes easier

8 7 Best Practices in Stakeholder Management (4) 7.Brand the project  Øresund Crossing: all communication focussed on “a project to be proud of”  Gotthard Base Tunnel: stress the benefits for users (from revolutionary technological breakthrough to the “bridge” between different countries and modal short from road to rail

10 Most agreed on statements SIG voting session in Amsterdam (April 2009)  Stakeholders should be compensated  Compensation can have many forms  Community communication is more effective than corporate communication focussing on positive project results  Project successes should be communicated at all times  Infrastructure projects can learn from each other  NETLIPSE should organise a stakeholder mgt. SIG

11 Most disagreed on statement SIG voting session in Amsterdam (April 2009)  The Noord/Zuidlijn project needs to be transparent and provide full insight into the risks for stakeholders Agree: 59,09%Disagree: 36,36% ?: 4,55%

12 SIG Stakeholders & Communication  Recognise these findings? On stakeholder management & communication:  What are important current issues?  What can the added value of this NETLIPSE SIG be?  Themes for discussion and development  What could your role be?
