Ідентифікація стейкхолдерів проектів впровадження системи екологічного менеджменту у муніципальних утвореннях

Abstract

Identification and analysis of stakeholders of the environmental management system implementation project in municipality play an important role for the success of the project, especially if there are different stakeholders groups with different and sometimes even conflicting interests in the project, which creates some obstacles to the project implementation. In the environmental management system implementation project, the leaders of the local administration acts as an investor, customer and user of the project at the same time. Also, one of the peculiarities of implementing such a project at the municipal level is the fact that local communities serve as a user too. In the course of the research, the main stakeholders of the environmental management system implementation project in municipality, their expectations and needs were identified. At the next stage, the impact / interest matrix was used to identify the categories of stakeholders, which revealed the most and the least priority participants in the project interaction. The AA 1000 SES standard has been used to clarify the information and build the main stakeholder profile of the environmental management system implementation in municipality project. The stakeholder prioritization with the impact / interest matrix and the AA1000 SES standard allowed to build a clear hierarchy of stakeholders, classify represented groups of stakeholders on specific grounds, and propose strategies for dealing with them. Within these strategies, various forms of active engagement with stakeholders, such as identifying key issues, conflicts of interest, constraints and opportunities, conducting additional research, contacts and discussions are proposed. The results of the conducted stakeholder analysis can be used to create a system of interaction and communication with the project stakeholders.
