Practice Standard for Work Breakdown Structures | PMP Exam Prep | Practice Standard for Scheduling | Principles of Project Management
This PMI standard provides an introduction to the WBS concept, defines the WBS and its characteristics, discusses the benefits of using a WBS, and demonstrates how to build a WBS and determine if it is sufficient for subsequent planning and control. A unique feature of this handbook is the inclusion of 11 industry-specific WBS examples. Constituting over half of the book, these examples aid the reader in further understanding, creating, and using WBSs in the following industries or applications:
-Oil, Gas, and Petrochemical (OGP)
-Environmental Management
-Process Improvement
-Pharmaceutical
-Process Plant Construction
-Service Industry Outsourcing
-Web Design
-Telecommunications
-Refinery Turnaround
-Government Design-Bid-Build
-Software Implementation
Examples are in different stages of completion and represent the evolutionary development of a WBS. None of the examples should be taken as the only right WBS for that type of project. This is the first-of-its-kind Practice Standard from the worldâs largest professional association for project management. It will enable project managers, project team leaders, contract personnel, and others interested in managing any aspect of a project to prepare a useful and high quality Work Breakdown Structure.
About: This is the first practice standard that the Project Management Institute (PMI®) has developed to complement and elaborate on the information contained in its de facto global standard for the profession, A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) â 2000 Edition.
