Stakeholder management is critical to project management. Inspired by the Project Management Body of Knowledge, this app helps project teams to perform the principal tasks associated with managing stakeholders.
stakeholders-docker is available on GitHub at https://github.com/critical-path/stakeholders-docker. It is the Docker version of stakeholders.
To install it, run the following command from your shell.
[user@host ~]$ git clone git@github.com:critical-path/stakeholders-docker.gitTo start stakeholders-docker for the first time, run the following command from your shell. This will build a Docker container from scratch.

In the navbar, select stakeholders and then add.
Use the form to identify and evaluate a stakeholder. Enter the stakeholder's name, role, sentiment toward your project, level of power, and level of interest in your project. Then click on the add button.
Repeat this process as many times as necessary.
In the navbar, select stakeholders and then show/update/delete.
Your stakeholders appear here, sorted by their unique identifiers. Each stakeholder has a management approach, which is a function of that stakeholder's levels of power and interest.
| Approach | Power | Interest | Flag |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monitor closely | high | high | red |
| Keep satisfied | high | low | orange |
| Keep informed | low | high | green |
| Monitor | low | low | blue |
| Unknown | invalid | invalid | gray |
In the navbar, select deliverables and then add.
Use the form to identify a deliverable, where a deliverable is a reporting requirement. Enter the deliverable's name, kind (type), medium, level of formality, and frequency. Then click on the add button.
Repeat this process as many times as necessary.
In the navbar, select deliverables and then show/update/delete.
Your deliverables appear here, sorted by their unique identifiers.
In the navbar, select associations and then add.
Use the form to identify an association, where an association is the assignment of a deliverable to a stakeholder. Enter a stakeholder and a deliverable appropriate for that stakeholder. Then click on the add button.
Repeat this process as many times as necessary. (It is possible to assign multiple deliverables to the same stakeholder as well as to assign the same deliverable to multiple stakeholders.)
In the navbar, select associations and then show/update/delete.
Your associations appear here, sorted by their unique identifiers.
In the navbar, select management-plan.
Your associations appear here, sorted first by management approach, then by stakeholders' unique identifiers, and then by deliverables' unique identifiers.
This is your stakeholder management plan - the whole purpose of this app!
In the navbar, select stakeholders, deliverables, or associations and then show/update/delete.
Find a stakeholder, deliverable, or association and then click on its update or delete button.
stakeholders-docker does not enforce constraints on the uniqueness of stakeholders, deliverables, or associations. This is to avoid unnecessary complexity in the code.
To execute tests that do not require a web browser, run the following command from your shell.
[user@host stakeholders-docker]$ docker-compose exec stakeholders pytest -m "not browser" --cov --cov-report=term-missing
