WORK BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE

Figure 1 Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

Figure 1 Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). In creating the Work Breakdown Structure,
the project manager defines the key and objectives first and then identifies the tasks required to
reach those goals. The figure 1 shows that the entire project (Alumni Hostel Reservation with
Google Map Interrogation), represented as the level 0 component. The entire project is
subdivided into 6 major functional deliverables (Project Initiation, Hardware, Software System,
Documentation, Project Management and Maintenance), which is represented as level 1
component. The 6 major functional deliverables are divided into sub deliverables. These sub-
deliverables are further decomposed until a single person can be assigned. At this level, the
specific work packages required to produce the sub- deliverable are identified and grouped
together.
