Explanation:
Note: A work breakdown structure in Primavera P6is a hierarchical arrangement of the products
and services associated with a project. Each level of the work breakdown structure represents an
element or task that needs to be accomplished for the project to be completed. The element
contains the tasks and activities needed to produce the deliverable.
The project is the highest level of the WBS while an individual activity required to create a product
or service is the lowest level.
Each project in the enterprise project structure (EPS) has its own WBS.
Note 2: When creating a project, the project manager typically develops the WBS first, assigns
work products and documents to each WBS element, and then defines activities for performing the
element’s work. Specific earned value calculations can be specified for each WBS element, along
with an organizational breakdown structure (OBS) element responsible for all work included in the
WBS element.
The work breakdown structure (WBS) consists of the WBS for each project included in the
enterprise project structure (EPS), in effect, extending the EPS beyond the project level. You can
view the entire WBS at once, or you can display only the work breakdown structures for a specific
node or project. Open the EPS element whose WBS you want to view, then choose Project, WBS.
