7 Work Breakdown Structure a "check list" of work to be accomplished; a structured approach; the scope of the work, broken down into smaller and more specialized work; a document in which the major project work packages are identified; a document in which the major project outputs and responsibilities are defined; and an integration of schedule and budget.

8 allow better and more detailed planning; facilitate the budget and schedule preparation process; facilitate assignment of responsibility to organization and/or functional area; and provide a structure for monitoring and reporting of project development and progress.
