Work Breakdown Structure

The Structure Designer builds the WBS and the OBS as governed hierarchies, or applies a default structure to start, so scope and responsibility are defined before planning begins.

Work Breakdown Structure

Work Package Basis of Estimate

Each work package carries its scope statement, deliverable intent, SOW or requirement references, estimating method, BOE narrative, assumptions and constraints, and gap filters show which packages are still missing them.

Control Accounts and Work Packages

Control accounts sit at the intersection of the WBS and the OBS, and work packages beneath them carry the earned value method, budget authorization and charge mapping, so schedule, cost, resources and actuals share one set of scope boundaries.

MS Project Structure Mapping

Import maps Microsoft Project fields onto the WBS, OBS, control accounts and work packages, with a preview tree, a choice for each ambiguous code and a list of unmapped tasks, all reviewed before anything reaches the plan.

Work Package Timing

Before detailed activities exist, place each work package by offset from a contract-award or notice-to-proceed anchor, or by absolute dates, and drag to adjust, so the BOE has a time-phased shape early.

Requirements Traceability

Roadmap

On the roadmap: requirements traceability that connects stakeholder needs to the work packages that satisfy them, so teams can confirm the planned scope covers what matters.
