    Uploaded by

    John Lloyd Agapito
    The document discusses a work breakdown structure (WBS) submitted by construction management students at Cavite State University in the Philippines. A WBS is a technique used to divide project work into smaller, more manageable components for management and control purposes. It involves identifying deliverables and breaking them into tasks, sub-tasks, and work packages. The document provides examples of how to structure different levels of a WBS and notes rules like the two week rule and 8/80 rule for work package sizes. Advantages of a WBS include easy project definition, organization, and resource estimation.

    WORK BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE

    • A technique by which the work of a project is


    divided and sub divided for management, and
    control purposes.

    • The WBS provides a graphical representation or


    textual outline of the project scope.

    • To construct a WBS, Project Manager experts


    identify the main functional deliverables and break
    them into tasks, sub-tasks and further into work
    packages.

    What is a Project Manager?

    A Project Manager is a
    professional in the field of
    project management. Project
    managers have the
    responsibility of the planning,
    procurement and execution of a
    project, in any undertaking that
    has a defined scope, defined
    start and a defined finish;
    regardless of industry.

    LEVELS

    • The depth of the WBS is dependent upon the size and complexity of
    the project and the level of detail needed to plan and manage it.

    •The first level describes the product we want to achieve once the project is
    complete.

    By meeting with the stakeholders, the team can start decomposing the
    product into smaller, more manageable components.

    •This is what the level 2 is showing below:

    If we take the component called “Wheels” for example, we
    may want to break it down into several pieces. However, the
    team has to decide how much detail the work really requires.

    For this example, we can just break this level into two
    pieces:

    Finally, there could be a component that needs more details for
    other reasons. In our example, the team decides to bring even
    more detail to the component called “Testing”. Based on the
    project’s needs, there could be a reason to add three more work
    packages as you can see in the following figure:

    RULES

    Two Weeks Rule: Any broken down level of the


    above structure cannot be smaller than two weeks of
    work.

    8/80 Rule: Any level of work should not be less than


    8hrs of work or more than 80hrs of work.

    There are many ways to represent a WBS, such as


    Tree, Table, or List. The Tree Type structure is mostly
    used and an efficient way of representation.

    Advantages/Importance of WBS:

    1. Easy to define, organize and manage the project.

    2. Improves the efficiency of the project.

    3. Helps to estimate the resources required, such as


    cost, time, staff, etc.

    4. Easy allocation of resource based on the


    importance of the task/sub-task.

    5. Easy to identify potential risks in a given project.
