WORK BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE

A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) has been created below to lay out the details of the project and make it more manageable. This chart will help clearly show the work that needs to be completed by the project team. The chart is broken down into deliverables and sub-deliverables that need to be accomplished within the project. The Work Breakdown Structure is a vital piece in helping establish an agreement between stakeholders and project team members to help determine the scope of the project. We have kept the WBS simple, but we have established a joint understanding of all the essential work necessary to be effective and successful in this project.
