the project team’s work during execution, and provides the baseline for evaluating whether
requests for changes or additional work are contained within or outside the project’s
boundaries.

Create WBS

The 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.
The WBS organizes and defines the total scope of the project. The WBS subdivides the
project work into smaller, more manageable pieces of work, with each descending level of the
WBS representing an increasingly detailed definition of the project work. The planned work
contained within the lowest-level WBS components, which are called work packages, can be
scheduled, cost estimated, monitored, and controlled.
