Stakeholder

Stakeholder are people who have a particular interest in a business activity. In the development of an information system, Whitten et. al. divide the stakeholders in the development of information systems to:

1. Information System (IS) Manager
2. Systems Analyst
3. Programmer
4. The end user
5. Supporting end users
6. Business Manager
7. Other Information System (IS) Technicians

The division is based on differences in the characteristics of the work they do to complete a project information system. This difference does not mean one has a more important role, but together to support each other the completion of a project information system.
