The Enterprise Project Structure(EPS) Enterprise→Enterprise Project Structure

The Enterprise Project Structure(EPS) forms the hierarchical

structure of your database of projects. Each EPS node ( or folder)
can be subdivided into multiple levels to represent the work that Opening the EPS
needs to be done in your organization. The three fields to enter when adding an EPS node are:
EPS ID-Identifies the selected EPS node
EPS Name-Description of the selected EPS node
Responsible Manager-Use this field to select an OBS(Organizational Breakdown Structure)
The Enterprise Structure(EPS) is a hierarchy used to organize element to associate with the selected level of the EPS)
projects
The EPS is made of roots and nodes
• Each root in the EPS can be subdivided into many nodes
• Nodes represent different levels within the structure
Ex: nodes can represent divisions within your
company,departments,projects groups,or site locations
All projects must be included in a node
• Each node can contain an unlimited number of projects
• Projects always represent the lowest level of the hierachy
• placement of a project in the heirarchy determines the
summary level in which it is included
 Organiztion Breakdown Structure
An obs is a hierarchical arrangements of a projects management structure. It
determines how people within a company are organized and what rights and access
they have to various projects.
OBS is not same as a resource pool
Resouces are assigned to activities & OBS elements are associated with EPS nodes and
projects
OBS Element corresponding to an EPS node is the project manager who responsible for
all work included in that branch of hierarchy
In this way OBS supports larger projects that involve several projects managers with
diffrent areas of responsibility
