In many organizations, small changes like correcting typos usually fall under the authority of the Project Manager and do not require formal approval from higher-level entities like the Change Control Board (CCB) or the project sponsor.

    • AThe communication plan is outdated.
    • BThe project manager did not assess the stakeholders.

It serves as a contract or agreement between the project team and the stakeholders, providing a clear understanding of what is expected from each party. If a stakeholder raises a concern that an assigned responsibility is outside of their domain during the kickoff meeting, it suggests that the SOW does not accurately reflect the responsibilities and roles of the stakeholders. The stakeholder may feel that the assigned responsibility does not align with their expertise, authority, or area of responsibility.
