Instructions:

Please create work breakdown structure for the following project:

You are preparing to build wooden flower boxes around the railings of your deck. You've never done this before. You'll need to design them, buy the materials, prepare and do the work, and install them. Consider anything else you might have to do, as well.

Details:

There is no one "right" way to do it, but there are deficient ways. Be sure your WBS:

  • Uses nouns as the work packages (lowest level) - this requires some thinking! For example, if you were creating a work package for buying wood, you would say:
  • "Wood purchased"
  • Don't say"Purchase wood."
  • Is broken down toat least3 levels (not every task will go to three or more levels, but some should) and remember, the project is at the top (for this assignment, the project doesn't need a level number)
  • Is numbered (1.0, 2.0, 2.1.1, 2.1.2 etc) as needed - but don't stress over numbering; get the structure correct (most important).
  • Put thehoursfor each levelright onthe chart/list (estimate best you can), and roll them up to the next level, and finally give a total hours figure at the project level.
  • See images below for formatting.
