Talk:Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

Mette: I like your idea for a topic. I seems like you have a clear idea of what to write the article about and have remembered the structure for a "method article". Maybe you could short mention the Goal Breakdown Structure (GBS) in the article and outline the different.

• The topic was a wise choice, very relevant for practitioners and related to the course.
• Another positive aspect is that it follows the method structure.
• In addition, it has a good structure of sections and you did a good job with the references.
• I would suggest to separate the text into more paragraphs, especially in sections like History and Value breakdown structure. This way, you could improve the reading flow.
• Also, I recommend you to be careful with “,” and “.”. You should separate some sentences, for example:
  • Moreover, during the project executions the percentage of steps completed must be included. This ensure better control and guidance in case of any changes during the project development.
  • During 1962, United State Airforce released “STUDY OF METHODS FOR EVALUATION OF THE PERT/COST MANAGEMENT SYSTEM”. In this document WBS was mention as a useful tool for controlling and planning large acquisition projects.
  • WBS could be considered a general tool that can be use in most of projects and program, due to this reason a WBS to another may vary to best adapts the project manager needs.
• Also, you should revise the grammar carefully. For example:
  • must includes = must include
  • since this tool is use = since this tool is used
• I would suggest that you transform the questions in the Main characteristics section into indirect questions.
• In addition, be careful with the paragraph spacing.
• You should introduce with a sentence the bullet points at the end of the Main characteristics section.
• I think you should rephrase the sentence “The most common method for decomposing a WBS are the following methods”. In addition, I recommend that you continue the explanation to every concept in the same line.
• Although you have noted “Picture under construction”, do not forget to numerate them and align them properly in the text. I would also suggest that you mention the figures in the text.
• I think you should use “:” after Nothing extra and Nothing Missing.
• Finally, correct the spelling of the words advantages and disadvantages in the last section title.
