Assignment Task: Description: WBS is the tool for planning and controlling the work content in project management. The WBS is commonly used at the beginning of a project to define project scope, organize Gantt schedules, and estimate costs. Successful project management depends mainly on the project manager's ability to specify the work content of projects in terms of their products (deliverables) and activities. Therefore, Work Breakdown Structure in any project and throughout the project must maintain and control the integrity of deliverables and activities in the project schedule. According to PMI*, a WBS is a product-oriented family tree of phases, activities, and tasks that organize, define, and graphically display the total work to be accomplished to achieve the project's final objectives. WBS is the unique technique in project management for defining and organizing the total scope of a project, using a hierarchical tree structure, tabular structure, etc. Each descending level represents an increasingly detailed definition of the project. It is a system for subdividing a project into manageable work packets, components, or elements to provide a common framework for scope schedule, costs, allocation of responsibility, communications, risk assessment monitoring, and control.
