Five-Level Work Breakdown Structure

Five-Level Work Breakdown Structure


The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is exemplified using a simple five-level plan. Top-down budgeting and allocation of team skills are demonstrated in connection to the WBS.

Why Work Breakdown Structure is important?

The WBS makes the deliverables more precise and concrete so that the project team knows exactly what has to be accomplished within each deliverable. This also allows for better estimating of cost, risk, and time because you can work from the smaller tasks back up to the level of the entire project.
