Turnaround Project Management Primer - Overall Communication Flow

Information must flow "up" and "down" the organization.

There are a number of interactions between departments that result from the information flow. Sometimes the information is re-processed as a result of some impact on schedule, manpower and/or cost, which may result in a re-issue of schedules, etc. to reflect any changes.
