Abstract
It is beyond any reasonable doubt that the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is the foundation of planning, estimating, scheduling, and monitoring any kind of activities. With its contribution an outline of common reference for all schedules and better estimates is ensured.[1] A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is the process of subdividing project deliverables and project work into smaller, more manageable components. More specifically, it is a hierarchical decomposition of the total scope of work to be carried out by the project team to accomplish the project objectives and create the required deliverables.[2]
The purpose of this wiki-article is not only to thoroughly describe the capabilities and restrains of this method but also to provide guidance concerning the techniques that can be used for the effective implementation of project Work Breakdown Structures.
