Abstract: Stakeholders' management of their interaction and involvement in the project schedule is often neglected in projects. This paper analyses stakeholders' involvement in developing, improving, and implementing project schedules across various domains. This paper discusses how stakeholders affect a project's schedule quality, commitment, risks, resources, and performance. This paper establishes that stakeholder involvement in scheduling enhances project performance by offering reliable duration, matching the project schedule with stakeholders' expectations, and realistic resource demands. Thus, as outlined in this paper, understanding the impact of stakeholder involvement on scheduling success will help the project managers develop better ways of engaging the stakeholders and improving the success of schedules.
