  5. 5. By: Anand Bobade () How Great Wall of China (8850 KM) could have built? If you think of building it again.. It will look like a gigantic or impossible task. In reality, they are series of fortifications built by various emperors. Later, it was joined together to make a bigger and stronger wall. Similarly, initially Projects looks gigantic tasks until they are broken into modules, deliverables & further works packages. 5.4. Create WBS -> Introduction

Helps to accomplish Project objectives. 100% rule: • WBS contains 100% of the Project scope. • It contains all project deliverables. • If something is not in WBS then it is not a part of the project.
  9. 9. By: Anand Bobade () 5.4 Create WBS -> Introduction Control Account: • Management control point where scope, budget, actual cost, & schedule are integrated & compared to earned value. Planning Packages: • A work breakdown structure component below the control account with known work content but without detailed schedule activities. Work Packages: • The work defined at the lowest level of the WBS for which cost and duration can be estimated and managed.

  21. 21. By: Anand Bobade () 5.4 Create WBS -> T & T -> Decomposition Decomposition Dividing and subdividing project scope & project deliverables in to smaller & more manageable parts Identifying & analysing deliverables and related work. Decomposing the upper WBS levels into lower-level detailed components. Developing and assigning identification codes to the WBS components. Verifying degree of decomposition of the deliverables is appropriate or not.
  22. 22. By: Anand Bobade () 5.4 Create WBS -> T & T -> Decomposition Decomposition If work is decomposed to greater level of details, the ability to plan, manage & control work is enhanced. Excessive decomposition lead to non-productive management efforts, inefficient use of resources, decrease in efficiency. May not be possible for a deliverable or subcomponent that will be accomplished far into the future. 100% Rule: The total of the work at lowest levels should roll up to the higher levels so that nothing is left out.

Verified by quality team Formalizing acceptance of deliverables Deliverable Accepted Or Change Request
  40. 40. By: Anand Bobade () 5.5 Validate Scope • It is primarily concerned with correctness of deliverables & meeting quality requirements specified for deliverables. Quality Control (Project Quality Manag.) • This process is primarily concerned with acceptance of the deliverables. Validate Scope (Project Scope Manag.) Control Quality is generally performed before Validate Scope, although the two processes may be performed in parallel but quality control will complete first. The verified deliverables obtained from Control Quality process are reviewed with customer & get formal acceptance.
  41. 41.

Which of the following is the process of formalizing acceptance of the completed project deliverables?

Validate Scope is the process of formalizing acceptance of the completed project deliverables. The key benefit of this process is that it brings objectivity to the acceptance process and increases the chance of final product, service, or result acceptance by validating each deliverable.

Who is responsible for accepting the final project deliverable?

The project manager usually takes responsibilities for managing the process. This person can play the role of approver who evaluates the deliverables at the project's end, communicates with the customer on this point, and make the final decision on accepting and approving the deliverables.

What is the process of subdividing project deliverables into smaller manageable tasks?

Creating a work breakdown structure is done using a technique called decomposition. It is basically the process of subdividing project deliverables and project work into smaller and more manageable components.

In which of the following processes would you expect to subdivide the major project deliverables and project work into smaller components?

In which of the following processes would you expect to subdivide the major project deliverables and project work into smaller components? p. 156 - In the create WBS process you break down the major deliverables into smaller, more manageable components.
