Deliverable 3 - Create a WBS for a Project
Competency
Evaluate organizational influences on project management and
methods utilized for staffing, managing, and executing projects.
Scenario Information
You are assuming the role of the project manager for a company
called SuperPacks to provide a new backpack product with a
built-in refrigeration pouch and radio module. Your customer

for this project is the U.S. Army, Ground Forces and Special
Operations. As the project manager for your team, you will be
submitting to your manager a project management report.
Instructions
Work Breakdown Schedule
As the project manager, your role is to track and manage the
projects you are working on; creating a Statement of Work and
a Work Breakdown Structure are tools that can help you manage
a project or projects. Below you will create a Statement of work
consisting of the basics of the project(s) you are working on.
Consider this similar to a business or marketing report, but this
will define the project, project scope, and overall strategy of the
project.
Part One
Statement of Work (SOW) Document:
Develop the project Statement of Work document to include the
following information:
· Business need
· Product scope description
· Strategic plan
Part Two
As part of your Statement of Work for your project, you will
create a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The WBS allows
for project managers to compose all tasks of the projects into
smaller components to ensure a more manageable project(s).
Develop the project Work Breakdown Structure using the WBS
Template.
