6.1 Work Breakdown Structure
A work breakdown structure (WBS) is a deliverable-oriented grouping of the work involved in a project
that defines its total scope.
The WBS provides the basis for planning and managing project schedules, costs, resources, and changes.
Decomposition is a technique used for dividing and subdividing the project scope and project
deliverables into smaller, more manageable parts.
A work package is the lowest level of the WBS that the project manager monitors and controls. It also is
a level of work for which cost and duration can be estimated more easily and accurately. Work packages
can be thought of in terms of accountability and reporting.
The WBS can be represented using either a chart or a table.
