wwwisipmorg What is a WBS? Definition: A WBS is the primary tool used to define what to do in the project in a few words, it describes project scope (ISIPM) A WBS is a deliverable-oriented hierarchical decomposition of the work to be executed by the project team to accomplish the project objectives and create the required deliverables It organizes and defines the total scope of the project (PMI) The planned work is contained within the lowest level WBS components, which are called work packages ISIPM Istituto Italiano di Project Management Via Vallombrosa, 47/a 00135 Roma 5 wwwisipmorg WBS the magic tree ICT PROJECT (an example) ICT PROJECT FEASIBILITY REQUIREMENTS ING ROLL-OUT NEEDS MODULES HARDARE MODULE 1 MODULE 2 MOULE N 16 work packages DOC HELP DOCUMENT USER MANUAL TRAINING MANUAL A work package can be scheduled, cost estimated, monitored, and controlled ISIPM Istituto Italiano di Project Management Via Vallombrosa, 47/a 00135 Roma 6 @ISIPM 2012 3
wwwisipmorg WBS & Decomposition Criteria (1/4) Decomposition is the subdivision of project deliverables into smaller, more manageable components until the work and deliverables are defined to the work package level The work package level is the lowest level in the WBS, and is the point at which the cost and activity durations for the work can be reliably estimated and managed Steps Identifying and analyzing the deliverables and related work Structuring and organizing the WBS Decomposing the upper WBS levels into lower level detailed components (measurable/controllable, assignable to a single resp) Developing and assigning identification codes to the WBS components Verifying that the degree of decomposition of the work is necessary and sufficient ISIPM Istituto Italiano di Project Management Via Vallombrosa, 47/a 00135 Roma 7 wwwisipmorg WBS & Decomposition Criteria (2/4) The WBS structure can be created in a number of forms Using phases of the project life cycle as the first level of decomposition, with the product and project deliverables inserted at the second level (see slide 9) Using major deliverables as the first level of decomposition (see slide 10) Using subprojects which may be developed by Organizations outside the project team, such as contracted work As the work is decomposed to greater levels of detail, the ability to plan, manage, and control the work is enhanced The total of the work at the lowest levels must roll up to the higher levels so that nothing is left out and no extra work is completed This is sometimes called the 100% rule ISIPM Istituto Italiano di Project Management Via Vallombrosa, 47/a 00135 Roma 8 @ISIPM 2012 4
