The Work Breakdown Structure
WBS is the bridge between project scope and the project plan. Activity definition and activity sequencing are part of
the WBS.
WBS means divide project into small components and more manageable units called "packages". These packages
make possible to develop project plan, schedule, budget and monitor the progress of the project.Package starts with
project and then it divides into phases. Each phase has one or more deliverables. Under this deliverables there are
activities to achieve this deliverable and milestone. At the end of the phase, there is a milestone called phase
completion.
Milestones provides lots of advantages like
1. Keep project teams focus - It is easy to concentrate series of small short term deliverables than one single
large deliverable.
2. Reduce the risk of the project- This provides opportunity to see the progress of the project. And also
milestones act like proof for the concepts.
3. Provide mechanism for quality control.
Developing a WBS requires several versions until everyone is comfortable and confidant that all of the work activities
have been included. The process of developing WBS starts with DDT and DSC. Each deliverable in the DSC must
divide into lower level details. WBS must
1. Deliverable oriented - That should not be just sequence of events. It must produce something.
