11 You have been awarded the contract to set up a new restaurant in an existing building at a local university (i.e., there is no need for external construction). The WBS for the project, as developed by the planning team, is presented in Fig. 11. Using this WBS, carry out the following exercises:

a. Develop a coding system for the project.

b. Identify other types of projects that could use this coding system. For which types of projects would it be inappropriate? Explain.

c. If you wish to use a more general coding system that deals with construction, what would be the differences between the latter and the more specific coding system developed in part (a)?
